Wrendale Designs ‘Friday Feeling’ Dachshund Mug from Royal Worcester This beautiful fine china mug from Royal Worcester is part of the Portmeirion Wrendale Collection. The front of the mug depicts an adorable illustration of a Dachshund dog wearing a bright red collar, as he dashes excitedly towards something, with his big ears flopping behind him, and his glistening brown eyes gazing wide. On the reverse of the mug is the dachshund in another pose, rolled over on his back and peering up with a playful expression on his little face. Painted in watercolour, the illustration pleasingly contrasts against the crisp white background of the mug. Surrounding the dog are speckles of black paint, in a way that it very synonymous with the Wrendale brand. The speckled detail also features on the handle and a sitting dog is depicted on the inner rim. With a capacity of 310ml the fine china mug is both dishwasher and microwave safe. Each mug comes lovingly packaged in a gift box, making it the perfect gift for any dog lover, be it a friend or loved one. This series of fine bone china mugs manufactured by Royal Worcester, plus matching kitchen accessories, features endearing portraits of wildlife from the British countryside. Each image is delicately delineated with the soft brushwork and subtle colours which are trademarks of Hannah Dale’s style. Hannah is an ex-stockbroker turned farmer’s wife who, inspired by her rural married life, embraced her artistic roots and began painting the animals in the landscape around her.
