Description
Quail Ceramics designs in England and hand-paints each figure, so small colour variations in the mane's shades make every piece slightly different. The stoneware has a matt, slightly rough surface with depth in the painted lines around the eyes and muzzle. A fixture in the British tradition of figurative table ceramics that livens up the breakfast table without feeling childish.

Dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to preserve the hand-painted finish for as long as possible. Avoid hard knocks to the rim.
FAQ
Are Quail egg cups food safe?
Yes, all Quail stoneware egg cups are food safe and safe to use for everyday breakfast. The glazed inner surface comes into direct contact with the egg without any issues.
Can Quail egg cups go in the dishwasher?
Yes, the lion egg cup is dishwasher safe. To keep the hand-painted finish looking its best for as long as possible, hand washing with mild soap is recommended.
What is the difference between Quail's egg cups and ordinary ceramic egg cups?
Quail hand-paints each figure in England, so each piece has small variations in colour and expression. Ordinary egg cups are typically machine-produced with a uniform print or glaze without the same character.
Is a lion egg cup from Quail a good christening gift?
Yes, a hand-painted egg cup is a classic christening gift that accompanies a child through childhood. The lion is particularly popular for boys but works well regardless of gender and can be combined with other Quail figures over time.
Does an egg fit in a Quail egg cup?
Yes, the egg cup has a standard recess that fits both small and large hen's eggs. The weight of the stoneware keeps the egg stable while cracking the shell.

Handmade & unique product
Most of my products are handmade or hand-painted. This means that there may be variations in color, finish, and minor imperfections. These variations are a natural part of the handmade look and make each product unique. Minor differences are therefore not considered defects.
