Dunoon Puffins 2021 Cairngorm Shape Mug
Dunoon Puffins 2021 Cairngorm Shape Mug
That offshore bird, the coastal puffin is painted in gorgeous detail by artist Caroline Bessey. Shown in profile and depicted in pairs, with grey and black wings and bright orange beak and feet, these iconic birds surround the mug, with little flecks of blue paint decorating a crisp white background. It makes a lovely mug for a twitcher or anyone who loves the coast and birdwatching!
Cairngorm
The 'Cairngorm' shape, named after the eponymous Scottish Mountains, is a larger version of the Lomond shape mugs. It has a gentle slope to the body and a curved handle. With a range of fabulous designs to choose from this 'oversized' mug is a must. With a capacity of 480ml they are both dishwasher and microwave safe, with the exception of any mugs with gold embellishment.
Caroline Bessey
Caroline Bessey was born in Wigan, Lancashire and studied art, further specialising in ceramics at Lancashire Polytechnic, gaining a distinction award in 1986. Caroline is inspired by current trends and styles and has worked for Dunoon since 1987 and, although she is devoted to designing fabulous coffee and tea mugs, Caroline does not drink either of them!

Established in Dunoon, Scotland, over 35 years ago, Dunoon are a market leader in fine bone china and stoneware mugs. Their shapes and designs are as sought-after around the world as they are here in the UK.
They source the majority of their clays from Cornwall, England, as it creates brilliant white and translucent Fine Bone China (we’ll take their word for it), as resilient as it is beautiful. Dunoon still use traditional skills and methods to forge their mugs: their craftsmen use a process known as ‘slip casting’, which uses liquid clay – not machine-made – to achieve a finished mug that is fine to the touch, light to hold and a pleasure to use.
It’s all well and good having a mug that works (i.e. doesn’t have any holes), but if it doesn’t look pretty then we’re not interested. Fortunately, they’re a little bit awesome at this too. They have a remarkably talented ‘in-house’ design team and a wide portfolio of gifted freelance artists, many of whom have been associated with Dunoon for over 25 years. Further proof, if it was needed, that Dunoon understand the importance of consistency and longevity when it comes to producing top quality products.
The mugs are all finished with high quality glazes, and prints guarantee accurate colour reproduction, ensuring none of the incredible detail or rich shades are lost from the original and intended design.
Throughout every stage of the manufacturing process each one of their products is handled by a skilled craftsman, maintaining Dunoon's reputation of nearly 40 years of excellence in pottery making.
