Black Toast Writing Half Pint Mug The classic Emma Bridgewater tankard-style half pint mug, in cream, decorated with black lettering, hand drawn by Matthew Rice. As the writing on the outside and inside suggests, this mug is perfect for “TEA” , “COFFEE” or “HOT CHOCOLATE”! Naturally, this suggests an accompanying biscuit, so the words: “CAN I EAT ONE BISCUIT ... WHOOPS! I ATE THE PACKET” also on the mug, are entirely appropriate. With its all over writing decoration, it is the perfect mug to match the Writing Teapot. Black Toast Range Focusing on typography and orderly patterns created from lines of text, Black Toast is a simple but undeniably stylish range. The letters themselves are designed by Emma Bridgewater’s husband, Matthew Rice, who has had an interest in lettering since his school days. Combined with the black and light cream colour scheme, this range is both sophisticated and elegant. It works wonderfully with the Marmalade range from Emma Bridgewater . Not suitable for Microwave use. Not Oven safe. Dishwasher safe, however it is recommended to wash in lower temperature with liquid detergent to maintain appearance. Made from English earthenware. Emma Bridgewater’s earthenware pottery is made by hand in her factory in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire in England.
