There seems an enormous amount of tea/coffee mugs available that depict various Napoleonic images or of Napoleon himself. However, I've not come across any that are made of bone china. Does anyone know of where a bone china mug depicting the Emperor or Napoleonic images might be obtained? Preferably available in the UK. |

Might ask the gift shoppe at Les Museum les Invalades in Paris. While I have two from my visits there, I don't remember seeing any fine bone china ones. It's been many years since last visiting buy if anybody knows it would be them. |

Dye4minis – Thanks for suggestion. From what I can see, they do sell mugs. However, they look ceramic rather than bone china. I've sent them a message so we'll see what they say. advocate – Also a good suggestion. But I imagine the cost would be quite high. But I can always pop any I'm passing and see what they have. |

Just received a reply from the Invalides. They only sell ceramic mugs. The search continues. |
