I decided to treat myself and bought this mug kit. Wow! I love it so much, I bought myself a second one to use when hosting a friend. This strainer is much better than the others as it has ample space for loose leaf to expand and it fits the cup better. I don't use the lid on top of the cup as much as I use it to place my wet strainer after brewing, which it so handy. And the cup's design is absolutely brew-tiful! Yay!
This made an excellent birthday gift. It is pretty and the strainer and lid are items you don't get with a lot of cups.
This cup, lid and strainer surpassed my expectations.
I purchased this cup as a gift for myself because the colors and image are beautiful. After receiving it I was going to gift it because it comes in a really nice box that’s as pretty as the cup….but I kept it?? I will buy another to keep for gifting, however. I love the strainer basket because it’s larger than average with a flat bottom. The lid is the only downside. It is large and rattles around on the too of the cup so it could easily fall off and break.
Absolute stunner! I love impressionism in general, and Van Gogh is one of my favorites, so this mug purchase was already a no brainer. (I purchased both of the Van Gogh sets and couldn't be happier) Functionally, what really sold me was the matching lid to keep my tea hot and the nice sized additional strainer. If you're looking for a way to make your tea consumption a bit more elegant, I'd recommend this in a heartbeat.
Bought this for a friend for her birthday. She absolutely loved it. Said she'll be the envy of all her fellow teachers at the School of the Arts were she works.
The tea is very very good
Purchased as a gift go a friend, she loved it.
It is a lovely tea cup. The tea holder keeps the cover from fitting well.
I am in love with this mug! It's the perfect size and weight! It looks so lovely and refined. This has become my favorite mug. I adore Van Gogh, so the design is wonderful, the strainer and top maintain temperature and allow for perfect steeping.
This is a beautiful way to experience drinking tea. The mug is easy to use and brings a touch of elegance into the tea drinking experience.
alumniThis mug is elegant, eye catching, more beautiful in person and a wonderful bit of extravagance that will elevate the mood of the recipient and of the gifted..Even the accompanying gift box is a gift itself. It is a lovely place in which to tuck away small treasures.
What a beautiful way to make my tea while brightening my morning.
This is the third McIntosh bone china tea mug I have purchased and they are wonderful. The Van Gogh mug is the perfect size and weight and it is beautiful as well. I really enjoy drinking my afternoon tea in this mug.
This beautiful mug arrived just as promised and the recipient just adores it! The paint job is lovely and the mug itself is high quality and versatile. Highly recommend.
Love this mug set I purchased for a friend. She and I were both very happy with my purchase. High Quality. Highly recommend.
I liked the Van Gogh decoration on this mug with the basket for the tea and the lid to keep it warm.
I love the tea products I order regularly. The tea tastes especially good in the beautiful Van Gogh cup. I was so pleased I was notified when it was back in stock.
This is a beautiful mug with a wonderful design. I like how the brew basket and saucer/cover are included. This is a quite fragile mug, though. It's delicate bone china, but breaks very easily (as my first one arrived shattered into a hundred pieces). The replacement has held up well, with gentle hand washing and less frequent use.
Well made, great quality tea mug.....perfect for enjoying your favorite tea.
Loved this cup! My only comment is that I wished the inside was a darker color so the tea stains were less visible.
Nothing beats having a cup of tea out of a china cup! I love Irises and this cup will brighten your day!
Love my new mug. Van Gogh is a favorite and I was so happy to find this mug. I have ordered from this company before and I am extremely pleased with products and delivery.
Such a beautiful way to cup your tea. Elevates the experience!
