Description
This clear glass mug carries a camouflaged Vulcan aircraft, seen from directly above with its broad delta wings spread wide and the name VULCAN printed in bold grey capitals beneath it. The camouflage comes in browns and pale greys, with a red, white and blue roundel on each wing, and the clear glass lets the print sit crisply on its own. Turn the mug round and the design shows through the glass in reverse, so the aircraft is never quite out of view. It holds 10oz and stands 10cm tall, 11.2cm wide and 8cm deep, a comfortable everyday size for a proper cup of tea or a milky coffee.
Glass is a lovely way to enjoy a drink, because you can see the colour of your brew right through the side of the mug. We think this mug belongs on the kitchen shelf, the desk in a home office or a tray by the armchair, wherever a morning cup of tea is taken seriously. It makes a thoughtful Father's Day gift, one that will be used every day rather than tucked away in a drawer, and it sits just as happily in a cupboard of everyday mugs as it does on a shelf of aviation keepsakes.
The mug is made from clear glass with a thick, rounded base and a generous loop handle with room for a full grip. The print sits centred on one side of the mug, with the name set neatly underneath the aircraft. To keep the print looking its best, we would wash the mug gently by hand in warm soapy water and dry it with a soft cloth. For a Father's Day morning, fill it with his favourite brew and hand it over with breakfast in bed.
