Ask an Australian horse lover about brumbies and you will get a story. A mob glimpsed through the trees, a book read under the covers, a ride in the high country they still talk about.
This mug bottles a little of that feeling, minus the cold toes.
A Brumby Mug Carved From the High Country
The artwork is styled as a hand-carved linocut print in two inks, deep navy and teal. A brumby rears on a rocky ridge with its mane flying, framed by a pair of twisted snow gums, with mountain ranges layered into the distance behind.
“WILD AT HEART” runs along the bottom in bold carved capitals. The rough-cut texture gives it the look of a print you would find in a mountain-town gallery.
For Anyone With a Bit of Brumby in Them
You do not have to have seen a wild horse to know the type. It is the friend who would rather sleep in a swag than a hotel, and the kid who jumped every log in the paddock bareback.
It is a mug for the untidy, the outdoorsy and the hard to catch.
