Dropped my beautiful anthropology mug so looking for a beautiful replacement. Something striking, arty and beautiful.

Any suggestions anyone?

Links and pictures encouraged Smile

Looking to buy one asap as I'm mugless

Sara Miller is nice

I found this at John Lewis & Partners. What do you think?  https://www.johnlewis.com/sara-miller-escape-to-india-elephants-oasis-mug-340ml-jade-multi/p6358270?tmad=c&tmcampid=7&sshare=jlappioss_Y29tLmFwcGxlLlVJS2l0LmFjdGl2aXR5LkNvcHlUb1Bhc3RlYm9hcmQ=

Oliver Bonas is lovely but a bit small. I like my tea

This is from T2 pricey but every cup of tea feels special.

I'd go to TKMaxx/Homesense for a rootle, they have beautiful random cups/mugs and you can test the weight/feel of the handle/width of the rim (all important factors for that perfect cup of tea, right?!)
I have a preferred cup for Yorkshire tea, one for mint tea, another for tea when I'm gardening, tea in the morning vs the evening...it's a science.

I like Cream Cornwall mugs, nice thin rim...creamcornwall.co.uk/products/maritime-bone-china-mug-octopus?variant=31121954635858&currency=GBP&

You are going to think I am mad but Morrisons do a really lovely bone china bird mug. It has a bird painted on the outside and the corresponding egg on the inside. I have a robin one, blue tit and another one. They are lovely to hold and drink from (and I am a fussy mug person).

Saxendi · 27/07/2023 22:16

Whittards mugs were always my go to but they're not making the best ones any more!

Have you checked ebay? I've found replacements on there!

Denby are very classy and the glazes are to die for. I have slowly collected every colour.

ChinHairDontCare · 27/07/2023 22:22

Could you repair it with Sugru? Did that with two favourite mugs recently and it worked great.

Pinkitydrinkity · 27/07/2023 22:22

Have you got a Homesense or TK Maxx near you?

I have 4 Denby ones and 2 Christmassy Keith Bruner ones from Homesense. They have some jazzy ones too!

Yes, Whittard china mugs are brilliant. Decent capacity and very delicate without being fragile.
