Kingdom of Mercia Mug — Anglo-Saxon Heraldic History Gift

For two centuries, Mercia was the most powerful kingdom in England. King Offa built a dyke against the Welsh that's still walkable. King Penda was the last pagan king to seriously menace Christian England. The Mercian saltire — gold cross on deep blue — flew over the heart of the country before Wessex took the title. This mug puts that symbol on your morning coffee.

For the friend who insists Mercia gets undersold in pop history (they're right). For the Midlands history teacher who's still slightly annoyed about it. For the true Mercian who still remember England's middle kingdom. 

The kingdom that almost was England. Now also on a mug.
