Can I see a picture of your favourite mug?

[DYIDIY]

I love mugs, have started collecting them a few years ago and can never have enough. My favourite mug was a beautiful blue terracotta one I got from Greece years ago but it broke during a house move (still upsetting!). I am on a mission to find new ones to add to my collection.
Do you have different favourite ones for tea and coffee ?

This is my current favourite.

@Bakingandcrying That's very disturbing!

🤣 very phallic

😂😂😂

it’s given poor Brenda a shock

@widelegenes the blue denby mug is my absolute favourite, I have one with a blue flower pattern that has seen me through numerous jobs and now lives at home. It's the perfect coffee mug.

It really is perfect

That's the penis beaker!!

Errmm.... each to their own but you might not be able to get these out (!) if the vicar comes to tea.

Looks fab!!!!

Anyone that’s offended by this sort of thing isn’t welcome in my house 😂

I agree, I am also very particular about my mugs

This thread is wonderful 😂 mine is this one from Waitrose;
Nice feel to it weight wise, good size, smaller at the top so less likely to slosh (I’m clumsy!) and it feels nice, all smooth without being shiny… hard to describe! And it’s so pretty 😍

No I am a real person obsessed with mugs and pottery in general. I truly enjoy these types of posts! I prefer seeing pictures of your mugs at home as opposed to links

I am only just getting to reading comments and reply, I was at work this morning and asleep during the night… ;)

ArthouseI love all the Arthouse mugs and it seems such a great company to support. Their chocolate is wonderful too.

I have the big Iittala one in blue and love it.
I can't say I have a favourite, though; it changes all the time. I have a mug habit and have to watch myself in charity shops.
I can't stand mugs that are narrower at the top, tankard-style ones (so Emma Bridgewater is out, although I like a lot of her designs), ones on a little 'stand'/foot (don't know what to call it) and those ones with tiny and/or too-thin impractical handles.
I know the moment I pick up a mug whether or not I want it, from the shape and weight/feel.
I need different ones for black tea, herbal tea and coffee. For coffee I like a big mug with not much coffee in it at a time. If someone gives me a small mug and fills it to the brim with coffee my heart sinks.
Black teas have to be in china, not stoneware. Herbal teas I don't mind which.

I love threads like this. Thank you, OP. Here’s my favourite mug, though it is a seasonal one. It’s perfect:

Oogie boogie from nightmare before Christmas

@AntigoneFunn that’s my bathroom wallpaper, albeit in a different colour! Stunning in a mug too.

Me too!

I don't like stoneware, ceramic, anything heavy, tankard style, anything with a weird handle or anything thick. Bone china feels acceptable but I wouldn't buy it because of what it's made from.

I got half a dozen of these fine china mugs about a decade ago, in a couple of different designs. Sainsbury's were selling them off for £2 each because they were supposed to be seasonal.

Cheshire Cat from Asda… holds just the right amount of liquid. More than a normal mug but not so much I’m needing the loo every hour..!

Every mug/cup I own is Disney 😂

Love my morning coffee in this one before I leave the house.

🤣

That’s so pretty!
