Tired of mugs that chip, fade, or feel cheap? This 11oz ceramic mug is designed to solve those problems while adding style and durability to your morning routine.
Harbour seals, also known as common seals, are the smaller of the UK's two seal species, though their name can be misleading - they're not as common as you might think. In fact, current estimates give their numbers at 55,000 - a third of the number of grey seals around Britain's shores.
These charming creatures spend much of their time lounging on beaches, rocks, and sandbanks, but they're also strong swimmers, often seen gliding through coastal waters. Each harbour seal has a unique pattern of spots on its coat, making it possible to tell individuals apart.
In British folklore, they were believed to be selkies - mythical creatures that could transform into humans. Today, their curious and playful nature makes them a much-loved symbol of coastal wildlife.
This solitary harbour seal lies amongst seaweed and rocks, looking right at the camera with what seems like a contented smile on its face. Its sleek, spotted coat and relaxed posture make it hard not to be charmed by this adorable creature. Whether it's just finished a swim or simply soaking up the peaceful surroundings, this harbour seal perfectly embodies the calm beauty of UK wildlife.
Enhance your space with this cheerful seal in a wall art print, or enjoy its smiling face every day on a mug or greeting card!
