A Hardened and Shameless Tea-Drinker Mug | Funny Literary Quote Tea Lover Gift

Samuel Johnson said it about himself in 1784, and it has not lost its bite since. The line arches over a teapot that clearly agrees with him: monocle on, steam curling up like it's rehearsing a speech.

No apology in it anywhere. Just a pot that knows exactly what it is and one very old, very quotable insult turned into a badge of honour.

Part of the Tea Verse collection, so it lines up neatly with the rest of the set on a shelf or a draining board.

• Ceramic, glossy white finish
• One size: 11oz (325ml)
• Dishwasher and microwave safe
• Printed on both sides, so it reads from either handle position
