Description
This pink stoneware mug carries a little embossed goose and the words 'wonderful FRIEND', a gentle way to tell someone how much they mean to you. The goose stands just over the lettering, raised from the surface so you can feel it under your thumb, with a white body, an orange beak and feet, and a soft blush on its cheek. Beneath it, 'wonderful' is set in small, airy lower-case letters and 'FRIEND' in bold navy capitals. The pink is a pale, dusty shade, and the inside is a creamy white. It stands 8cm tall, 11.5cm wide and 8.5cm deep, with a rounded handle and a gently flared foot that gives it a sturdy, traditional shape.
It makes a thoughtful thank-you gift for the friend who always picks up the phone, helps with the move or brings the cake. It is also a kind Mother's Day surprise for a friend who is a mum herself. At home it sits happily beside the kettle, on a desk for the working day or on the bedside table with an evening cup of tea. At 8cm tall it is a compact, cosy size that is comfortable to hold in both hands on a cold morning, and the cheerful pink brings a soft note of colour to a kitchen shelf or a mug tree.
The mug is made from stoneware and carries a decal finish, which keeps the goose and the lettering crisp and clear against the pink. Washing stoneware by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth is good practice, and helps keep the colours and the little goose looking fresh. For a gift, we like to fill it with a few favourite tea bags and tuck a handwritten note inside. It is a simple present that keeps saying thank you long after the card has gone.
