All of Her Ladyship's favorite things cover the mug - a perfume bottle, a bouquet of pink roses, a diamond tiara, a stately mansion. Inside the mug is also a huge pink stoned ring encircled with diamonds. The words ' Her Ladyship' in blue run around the top of the mug and down the handle. Bigger than most, this beautiful mug is made of bone china in the UK. Holds 16.2 oz. of coffee, tea or whatever you put in your mug, standing 4.25 inches tall and 4 inches in diameter. Heirloom quality, perfect for wedding presents and shower gifts. Made by Dunoon Pottery, known for quality decorated drinking vessels - mug is really not the right word!
DUE TO PROPOSITION 65, WE CAN NO LONGER OFFER DUNOON MUGS TO RESIDENTS OF CALIFORNIA.
Dunoon is a thriving family business which began manufacturing the highest quality mugs in 1974 when the company was formed by two former executives of Staffordshire Potteries Ltd, Gordon Smith and Bill Harvey, both of whom were committed to the concept of producing quality ranges of stoneware mugs, filling a gap in the market with user friendly, beautifully designed original mugs.
The first firing of the new kiln was of 72 mugs for displaying at the Highland Trade Fair in Scotland. The gamble paid off as orders started to flow in, skilled operatives were
recruited and production began. Dunoon was soon selling mugs globally to quality retailers worldwide.
In 1982 a new factory in Stone, Staffordshire, the heart of the ceramic industry was opened and under Gordon's management Dunoon developed a policy of working with
numerous designers and artists to constantly update its ranges with new designs and unique mug shapes in both Stoneware and Fine Bone China.
Dunoon uses slip casting to guarantee a fine, lightweight mug; a method still used today. Dunoon is very loyal to its Scottish roots producing ranges dedicated to Scottish themes and customers. The growth in popularity of speciality coffee and teas has led to increasing sales and demand for both finer quality and unusual mug design.
