These rustic mugs are handmade in Galway and decorated with the word 'grand' in a hand-pressed, lower case typeface which adds a playful and unique design element. 'Grand' is a common slang word in Ireland, used to convey agreement from the reluctant 'okay' to the wonderful 'great' variety. Each mug has a different blue glaze pattern and the handcrafted nature of these pieces of earthenware mean that they also vary slightly in size. They are thick and sturdy, ideal for warming hands when sipping tea or coffee. The tapered design of the chunky body from the base of the mug to the lip, helps to retain heat, keeping drinks warmer for longer. Made by Alena Alena is a soulful potter who creates works of sincere beauty and purpose. Her pared-back style rejoices in the practicality of everyday objects. Her embrace of Irish culture adds a unique flair to her designs meaning her range of homeware charms in both modern or traditional households. She crafts trusty, homely pieces that are as appealing as they are useful.
