Alfred King of Saxons Mug — Anglo-Saxon History Gift for Medieval Enthusiasts

Before he became 'the Great,' he was simply the king who refused to lose. Alfred fought off the Viking Great Heathen Army with a guerrilla retreat through the Somerset marshes, regrouped at Athelney, and came back to rewrite the rules of English kingship. This mug shows him as he would have been seen in his own century — King of the Saxons, framed by Celtic knotwork and heraldic symbols, in the weathered gold and deep green palette of a tapestry that has seen things.

For the friend who's read every Bernard Cornwell novel. For the medieval enthusiast who thinks Alfred's reign is the actual most interesting era in English history. For the gift recipient who's developed strong opinions about the Treaty of Wedmore.

The king who founded England by refusing to give up on it. Now also on a mug.
