Set of two elegant footed mugs featuring pretty blue forget me not flowers. These lovely bone china mugs by Sheltonian are made in England and have a formal feel to them.
The blue forget me not flowers symbolized romance associated with a tragic fate. Legend states that in medieval times, a knight and his lady were walking along side of a river when the knight spied a lovely cluster of blue flowers. He bent to pick the flowers to present to his lady when the weight of his armor caused him to fall into the river. As he was drowning he threw the flowers to his lady and shouted " Forget-me-not".
Forget me not flowers are often worn by ladies as a sign of faithfulness and enduring love, so are often used in weddings as well as anniversary celebrations.
These mugs are not microwave oven safe, since they are trimmed in gold.
