Monday saw the breaking of my red V&A mug followed by some distinctly unladylike words. Being a Libran and unable to cope without a matching pair I had to go to our wonderful fine china shop here in town, Avenells ( a store incidentally which has been going for well over 100 years) and buy another one. They didn't have the red one, but this will match my brown one very nicely. The design is called Kilburn Silk by William Kilburn (1745 - 1818).

I am glad you were able to find a worthy replacement. It is such a dichotomy: keep somehing safe and never use it, or use it all the time and enjoy it while risking an accident. I love that the box lid pattern matches!!
yes i think the box is lovely too. I've kept it as well. The mug shall be used...they are my favourite mugs for coffee!
