Emma Bridgewater Seafood Stripe 1/2 Pint Mug

• Made in Stoke-on-Trent

When you think of the seaside, stripes come to mind … deckchairs with their striped canvas happily flapping when caught by the sea breeze, sticks of seaside rock that take forever to eat, windbreakers keeping gusts at bay, a Breton sweater cast jauntily over the shoulders and now Emma Bridgewater's Seafood Stripe 1/2 Pint Mug. With its hand-decorated design of red stripes and blue fish (the fish is actually an archive sponge!), this is a mug made for a hot drink in your beach hut after a bracing dip or for a cup of tea to wash down a Friday night fish ‘n’ chips supper.
