Description
This square black slate coaster tells a brother exactly what he means to you, in bold grey lettering across its face. The design is laid out like an old-fashioned label, with scrolled flourishes framing the words THIS BROTHER IS AN ABSOLUTE LEGEND. Beneath them, KIND and LOYAL sit either side of 100% ORIGINAL, a ribbon banner carries Awesome in flowing script, and BEST OF THE BEST closes the panel. The coaster is 10cm along each side and 1cm deep, a good size for a mug or a tumbler, and the rough, natural edges of the slate give it a rugged, characterful look.
It is a piece to use every day, on a desk, a bedside table, a coffee table or the arm of a favourite chair, wherever a brother sets down his morning coffee or an evening drink. The grey lettering stands out clearly against the black slate, so the message is read every time a cup goes down on it. As a gift it says something many of us would never say out loud to a brother, and it does so with a wink: the vintage lettering keeps it light-hearted rather than sentimental. It suits a brother who likes his things plain and solid, and it sits as comfortably in a home office as it does in a den or a kitchen.
Slate is a natural stone, and we like how this one pairs a rough edge with clear, crisp lettering on the face. To look after it, wipe it with a damp cloth and let it dry fully, and dust the lettering now and then with a soft dry cloth. Wrap it with a card in your own words and it makes a small, thoughtful gift on its own, or tuck it in beside a bag of good coffee or a favourite bottle for a brother who deserves a little fuss.
