I wanted to help you find the best Royal Doulton mugs (and mugs LIKE Royal Doulton’s) to have around the house or give as gifts. So I went all over the Internet and curated a list of the nicest ones (to me), so you don’t have to muck through like I did.
Of course, like many sites, most of the links are affiliates, and all it means is I might get a percentage of the sale if you end up buying something.
Hope you find a nice mug set or get some good ideas for one
Royal Doulton 1815 Mixed Patterns Mug Set of 4
.
Durable, chip-resistant porcelain. Good for all day everyday use or for the odd times there is company. Simple but has personality. Currently running around $48 on Amazon or check their website.
How the mug began:
Royal Doulton 1815 Mug Blue
I love the color on this one, it’s why I picked it out on its own – I have not seen it in a set anyway…wait, it is in this dinner set. A cheaper entry into the 1815 series too. Check the price on Amazon or Royal Doulton’s website.
Royal Doulton Pacific Blue Mugs – Set of 6
The set is available at Amazon or the Royal Doulton website – running around $75. I particularly like the dotted blue one and luckily it is one you can buy individually.
Royal Doulton Signature 1815 Set of 4 Mugs
Royal Doulton Signature 1815 Mugs – Set of 4
The aqua blue inside and how each cup seems to be a little different, that is what got me to look at these. They run around $71 on Amazon – I wasn’t able to find them on the Royal Doulton site. (Maybe a bit valuable now?)
Royal Doulton Olio Black Mug by Barber Osgerby
It is very solid looking, and a bit masculine in a good way. It’s on my Christmas wish list. Find it on the Royal Doulton website or on Amazon – running around 11 to 25 bucks – depending on if you catch it on sale.
Happy Mug Shopping
There is also a Royal Doulton line of mugs that are linked with Gordan Ramsey which don’t quite do it for me at the moment. But I will give it to them that they are more reasonably priced, so I can appreciate that.
I only discovered mugs and dishware like this recently. And I feel I might become obsessed. And yes, I see the cheaper knockoffs on Amazon too – but that is just what they are, knockoffs. Better to get the real thing, that is what this blog is about – stepping up your house game a bit.
Hope you found something and are enjoying it. Let me know if you do (or even don’t)
