Hedgerow Birds Blue Tit Suffolk Shape Mug One of our most attractive and recognisable garden visitors, the Blue Tit is portrayed on this mug from Dunoon. Perched among pink flowers, a passing butterfly indicates the advent of Spring. This delightful mug with its traditional curved shape will be welcomed by garden lovers and bird enthusiasts alike, and makes a lovely Mother’s Day gift. Richard Partis was born in Somerset in 1964. Growing up in the Wiltshire countryside he developed a great love of the natural world and a desire to be able to paint its beauty in great detail. After gaining an Honours Degree in Graphic Design at Bath Academy of Art he started a long and successful career as a freelance artist and illustrator. Richard has worked for Dunoon for over 20 years painting highly detailed watercolour paintings of birds and animals, landscapes and flowers, tractors and spitfires and many more designs from musical instruments to leaping salmon.  Suffolk Dunoon\'s Suffolk shaped mugs have delicate sweeping curves, a capacity of 310ml, and tend to be decorated with delicate imagery of flora and fauna. They are all dishwasher and microwave safe, with the exception of those featuring gold embellishment.
