Celebrate the beauty and heritage of Scotland with our Scottish Thistle Mug & Teabag Holder Collection. Available as a single mug, a set of 2 mugs, or a charming teabag holder, this collection brings a timeless Scottish tradition to your home. The matching design features the Scottish thistle, a symbol of resilience and national pride, tied to centuries-old stories. According to legend, a thistle once saved a Scottish army from an ambush when a barefoot enemy soldier stepped on the prickly plant and cried out, waking the Scots in time to defend themselves, ultimately winning the battle. Since then, the thistle has been Scotland's emblem, representing strength and endurance. Pair this set with our Wooden Scotland Thistle Drink Coaster for a complete Scottish-inspired tea experience.
Crafted from new bone china, a material known for its delicate appearance yet surprising strength, these pieces are lightweight and incredibly durable. New bone china is also highly resistant to chipping, has a smooth, refined feel, and retains heat well, perfect for keeping your tea at the optimal temperature. Both the mug and teabag holder are microwave and dishwasher safe, making them as practical as they are elegant.
The mug is generously sized at 3 ½" in diameter, 4 ¼" tall, and holds 13 fl oz, making it ideal for your morning coffee or evening tea. The matching teabag holder, measuring 5.9 inches wide, is a convenient and stylish addition to your tea routine. Whether as a gift or for yourself, this collection is a must-have for any tea lover with a love for Scottish heritage.
