A top-quality 8oz bone china mug featuring a light-hearted sketch of Jane Austen prettily drinking tea on one side and the legend '...indeed I would rather have tea.', a quote from Jane Austen's beloved Mansfield Park, on the other. Alice says it's perfect for a small cup of a light, elegant tea such as Lapsang Souchong, or a decent-sized cup of coffee from your Nespresso machine. That's why it's her favourite mug in the kitchen cupboard at Tillingford Hall and she begged us to sell them on our website alongside 'her' book! Our suppliers tell us they're dishwasher safe and the design certainly seems to be properly glazed on, not just stuck on with a transfer, so I'm sure they're right.
