Advantages: good mug

Disadvantages: none

I got a good sized mug of tea at my friends the other day in a striped * Wittard of Chelsea Hand-Painted Jumbo Mug This mug measures D9cm x H11cm

This mug is not a fine china mug but a sturdy ceramic one.
This mug as you can guess from the title is a striped one the stripes go around the circumference of the mug not up and down. The stripes are fairly thin orange, blue, yellow, white, the handle orange and white. The inner glaze of the mug is orange.

This mug is one of a mix and match range from Wittards of Chelsea. There is a different style of mug in the same design and also a matching tea pot, matching coasters , matching plates and matching cups of differing styles all with the stripe design .
Also if you wish to mix your designs Wittards do a spotty set or a Geometric design the same shape and colours these would not look wrong if presented as a mixed set together .

However this striped jumbo mug is a good one just on its own or part of a set. It is an attractive mug it feels good to hold and to drink from, suitable for any drink hot or cold.

Washing up, well this mug can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher. It is also microwave safe so when you let your tea get cold you can reheat it

*Durable?
Well its stronger than bone china but obviously will break if you drop it on a hard floor.

*Price
This mug will cost £6 at http://www.whittard.co.uk I am sure I have seen this mug for sale in the high street at china shops or large department stores.

Would I recommend?
Yes it was a good mug to drink from and look at. A set of these would make a good wedding present .

*** Apologies
Dooyoo seem to have got my category requests a bit muddled I requested a place for the striped mug and a seperate place for the spotty one they have merged them together .

The spotty mug in the picture will mix and match with the striped one I wrote about the same in every way except dotty design same colours though and the inner glaze blue+ Thanks Mary ,...... Dratt I was going to write a review on the dotty one too .
