Dunoon Cairngorm Pretty Paws Tabby Mug
The Dunoon Cairngorm Pretty Paws Tabby Mug takes Dunoon's straight-edged Cairngorm shape, a larger version of the brand's Lomond mug, and decorates it with a tabby cat sitting amongst wild foliage in shades of blue and yellow, painted in soft watercolours. The straight sides give the illustration a consistent surface to sit on without distortion. The mug is made from fine bone china, handcrafted in Staffordshire using methods refined over three generations within the same family pottery business.
