A gorgeous porcelain mug featuring a collection of flowers to describe the recipient's character through the ancient art of floriography. An unusual personal Christmas gift
Choose six flowers which describe the recipient from the pick list to decorate your mug. For example, if they are funny, you would include Meadow Lychnis; if they have always been there for you, you may include Geranium.
It makes a beautiful and unique Christmas or birthday gift, with six flowers decorating the mug and a key to the flowers and their meanings.
Floriography, often called the "language of flowers," is a beautiful and symbolic way of communicating emotions and messages through flowers. Each flower, and sometimes even its colour, represents a specific meaning or sentiment, allowing people to convey complex feelings without words. This practice, which dates back centuries and reached its peak during the Victorian era, is a subtle and creative means of expression. For instance, clover symbolises luck, while honesty represents, well, honesty.
Our Floriography gift mug offers a thoughtful, personal way to connect with others, whether it’s to celebrate friendship, express affection, or offer encouragement. It adds a layer of charm and depth to gift-giving, making every bouquet not just a visual delight but also a meaningful gesture.
