Slow down with a tea and mug duo designed for quiet moments.
Sweet and fragrant, our refreshing blend of whole-leaf, malty English breakfast combines rich Golden Assam with a brisk Sri Lankan Orange Pekoe black tea. The result is a traditional yet subtly fragrant and robust tea that tastes divine with or without milk.
The tea comes in a keepsake caddy designed with a Morris and Co. pattern created in 1896 by J. H. Dearle. It adds colour to any shelf and stays useful long after the last scoop of tea.
The coordinated fine bone china mug is made in Stoke-on-Trent exclusively for the V&A and carries a design adapted from the Larkspur wallpaper pattern created by William Morris in 1874.
A perfect ready-made gift for anyone who enjoys beauty and a warm cup in hand.
Please note this is a bone china product and delivery restrictions apply.

William Morris
Textile designer, writer and social pioneer, William Morris and his work have long been associated with the V&A. In 1865, his company was commissioned to design the West Dining Room at the museum, which features early examples of a number of the organic patterns that would make his name. Born in Walthamstow in 1836, Morris was captivated by nature from childhood, spending much of his time exploring Epping Forest and the surrounding countryside. These themes informed much of his textile design, and his mastery of pattern ensured an enduring appeal.
