Dunoon Little Chicks Owls Bute Shaped Mug This fun and educational fine bone China mug from Dunoon is beautifully designed by Kate Mawdsley and features a series of owls printed around the mug. These detailed illustrations capture the newborn’s fuzzy fur and adorable demeanours. This minimalistic design still pops against its crisp white background with the combination of brown and copper colours. A winding vine with pretty pink flowers can be seen climbing up the handle of the mug while it makes a lovely gift for animal enthusiasts. Kate Mawdsley Kate Mawdsley was born in Lancashire and now lives in a converted barn in East Anglia. Even in the nursery, Kate Mawdsley preferred to play with paper, pencils and paint rather than toys and she maintained her interest in art throughout her education. After completing her degree in fashion and textiles, Kate spent the first ten years of her career in the fashion industry. In the early 1990s, she began gradually to move into more illustrative work. Since then, her repertoire and collection have expanded each year and her work can now be seen on products ranging from Dunoon mugs to cross-stitch fabrics. Bute These classic shaped, fine bone china mugs feel good to hold and are the canvases for some of Dunoon\'s most popular, and certainly their most detailed, designs. With a capacity of 300ml, all designs are both dishwasher and microwave safe, with the exception of those featuring gold embellishment.
