No slogan, no pun, just a very good-looking horse. For the woman who would rather be at the paddock, this is one of those horse gifts for women that says “I know you” without saying a word.

Save for later ♡

Not every horse person wants a joke on their mug. Some just want to look at a beautiful horse while the kettle boils, and fair enough.

This one is all artwork and no words: a quiet, kind-eyed bay who looks like he has just heard the feed bin lid.

Horse Gifts for Women Who Love a Bit of Art

The portrait is painted in loose watercolour. A dark bay with a white blaze turns his head three-quarters towards you, mane falling forward in inky brushstrokes, with a few flecks of paint drifting off the edge.

Beneath his neck sits a spray of golden wattle and grey-green gum leaves, which makes it feel properly Australian without shouting about it.

A Calm Moment Before the Chaos

Horse life is rarely as serene as this painting. There are rugs to change, floats to hitch and a water trough that needs scrubbing again. This mug is the five quiet minutes before all that.

It also looks rather lovely on a shelf, which is more than can be said for most things that come home from the stables.

Delivery and care

Do you deliver across Australia?

Yes, to every state and territory by Australia Post, and shipping is free when you order 2 or more items. We only ship within Australia.

How is the design printed, and will it last?

Every mug is hand-printed in Australia using sublimation printing on an 11oz ceramic mug. We like to be upfront: like every sublimation print, the colours will gradually soften with use and washing. It is made for everyday drinking, and a favourite mug that has worn in a little is part of its charm.

How do I look after it?

The sublimation print is dishwasher safe, so you can load it up with the rest of the kitchen. To keep the colours looking fresh for longer, a hand wash with a soft sponge is kinder than a scourer.
