On this fine bone china mug in the Shetland shape, the Secret Wood undergrowth takes on a particular presence: the foliage wraps around the wall and accompanies the infusion right to the end. Dunoon's fine English porcelain, enriched with bone ash, remains thin, white and astonishingly light. Each piece is slip cast then checked by hand at the Stone factory, Staffordshire, before being stamped. Admirers of the design will find it again on the Islay cup and the house teapots: Shetland is its most contemplative version, made for teas one likes to let linger.
