Description
This off-white cup is wrapped in soft, painterly illustrations of chickens. A little flock of russet hens pecks and struts around its sides, with tiny speckles of colour at their feet. Look inside and you'll find the words THE FARMYARD CHICKENS running all the way round just below the rim in neat black capitals, so the farmyard theme carries on as you drink. It's a round, wide cup that tapers gently towards its base, with a generous loop handle, and it stands 8cm high, 13cm wide and 10cm deep.
At 340ml it holds a generous cup of tea or coffee, enough for a long morning brew without a trip back to the kettle. The wide top makes it a comfortable one to wrap both hands around, and it suits a milky latte or a hot chocolate on a cold evening just as well. We think it looks most at home in a country kitchen, on the breakfast table or hanging from a hook on the dresser, where the chickens can keep everyone company. Its low, wide shape also sits happily on a desk or bedside table for a quiet tea break.
The chickens are a decal print on the off-white body. The soft shades of the hens, from ginger and rust to the red of their combs, stand out clearly against the plain background. The handle is a smooth, rounded loop, and the flat base keeps the cup steady on the table. To keep the print looking its best, we'd suggest washing it gently by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth. It's an easy gift to wrap and a cheerful one to give, and it looks lovely on an open shelf beside a jug of garden flowers.
