Product details

Made in the UK from heat resistant wood with a high gloss finish and a cork backing. Size 97 mm x 97 mm. Wipe clean.

An award-winning design!

My painting of the shipping forecast, which appears on this coaster, has been consistently popular with customers since the day I painted it. Indeed, in 2016 it won a prestigeous award from the British Cartographic Society. 

What is the shipping forecast?

The shipping forecast is a short marine weather forecast. It has been broadcast daily to British audiences since 1861. Initially by telegraph and then by BBC radio from 1924, its issued by the UK’s Met Office. But to British ears is so much more than that. It's a daily prayer to the Weather Gods!
