Colour Dictionary Bone China Mug | Grass Green No 87

One of the oldest colour names in the English language, Grass Green No 87 dates back to at least 700 A.D. The shade featured here is a balanced representation of various natural grass tones, drawn from samples submitted by textile and design industries over the years.

Part of the British Colour Standard collection, this mug celebrates a historic 1930s colour matching system once used across the British Empire for everything from uniforms to flags and post boxes. Modernised for today, these vibrant mugs bring meaningful colour and thoughtful design into the everyday.

Crafted from fine bone china with a smooth, crisp white finish, each mug is wrapped in a rich colour decal and features the original name and number from the BCS archive.
