Description
Winnie is a set of four stoneware mugs, each holding 370ml, which puts them firmly in mug territory rather than small coffee cup size. Each one is 9cm across and 10cm tall, with a rounded body that narrows gently towards the rim and a looped handle. The glaze is what sets them apart: a deep, glossy green at the top that breaks into a dense speckle over the lower half and carries on into the handle. Stoneware is a sturdy, hard-wearing clay that holds heat well.
At 370ml there is room for a large tea, a milky coffee or a hot chocolate on a cold evening. Four matching mugs cover a household's morning round or a small table of guests at the weekend, and they look as much at home on an open kitchen shelf as on a desk through the working day. The green sits well beside wood, linen and plain pale tableware, and a set of four makes a thoughtful gift for a new home or a first flat.
The finish is a reactive glaze, a type of glaze that moves and settles as it is fired, so no two pieces finished this way come out exactly alike. The inside is glazed as well, flecked with darker spots. Looking after them is simple: the mugs go in the dishwasher, and they can go in the microwave and the oven too. For a tidy display, line all four along an open shelf with the handles turned the same way, so the speckled lower halves read as one band of colour, or hang them by their handles from a row of hooks under a wall cupboard.
