Roses in full bloom, rendered in the soft, painterly style of artist Michelle Auborg. The Dunoon Chartwell Mug is the kind of piece that makes a morning feel unhurried — fine bone china that sits lightly in the hand, with a capacity generous enough for a proper cup.

Made in England by Dunoon, whose Staffordshire pottery has been producing beautifully designed mugs since 1974. Each piece passes through the hands of skilled craftspeople — a quiet assurance of quality that shows in every detail, from the weight of the clay to the clarity of the glaze.
