This is a collection for anyone who has never quite got over the fact that a tiger knocked on the door and drank all the tea.
The centrepiece is a ceramic tiger jug — tall, striped, gloriously over-confident, with piercing green eyes and black-tipped ears. Around him, a small gathering of mismatched vintage teacups and saucers — the kind that suggest someone has been collecting them one car boot sale at a time. And completing the set, an original copy of The Tiger Who Came to Tea by Judith Kerr, worn at the edges in the way that only truly loved books are.
Displayed together, this is an instant talking point. Gifted together, it is completely unreasonable in the best possible way.
Perfect for:
Anyone who grew up with the book and never grew out of it
A gift for a new parent who deserves something with personality
A kitchen shelf, a child's room, or a desk that needs a story on it
People who believe tigers should always be invited for tea
