Colour Dictionary Bone China Mug | Oriental Red No 29
Add a splash of heritage colour to your kitchen with this beautiful bone china mug in Oriental Red No 29. Originally recorded in the 19th century, this rich, warm red is a bold fusion of Turkey Red and Adrianople Red—timeless and striking.
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.
