Sophie Allport Royal Wedding Mug

I don’t know what it is about mugs that makes them so eminently desirable – the variety of materials, the endless patterns, the endless capacity for tea and hot toddies – but I absolutely go nuts for them. This bone china mug from Sophie Allport might be my favourite Royal Wedding souvenir yet:


I’m at a loss for words! It’s not tacky, it’s not ironic, it’s something I would actually use rather than put in a cupboard with the rest of my tacky, ironic souvenir mug collection.

It’s on sale at www.sophieallport.com from February 14, but if you’re really keen to give your morning cuppa a royal edge, you can pre-order on 0845 0177 866. The mug is £8.50 and comes in its own presentation box, but is far too pretty to stay there.

    Oh I love this! So subtly stylish!

    I just posted about coronation/jubilee memorabilia a couple of hours ago! Lol :-)

    Oh that is gorgeous, much nicer than all the mass produced stuff that's ben floating around! I would love an entire tea service like this!
