Next "Hamish The Highland Cow"

Next Hamish the Highland Cow is a popular character-led range featuring the instantly recognisable shaggy Highland cow, Hamish. Used across an extensive collection of Next homeware, Hamish has appeared on a variety of kitchen and tableware pieces as well as decorative and seasonal items.

Rather than following one fixed pattern, the range uses Hamish in a number of different ways. Some pieces feature a single larger illustration of the Highland cow, while others use smaller repeating figures scattered across a pale ground. Seasonal versions have also been produced, giving the range plenty of variation while retaining the same friendly character.

The repeating design seen on some mugs uses small brown Highland cows spaced across a simple cream or pale grey background, allowing the detailed little figures to provide the decoration without making the overall appearance too busy. Other Hamish mugs feature larger portraits, different colourways and more playful interpretations of the character.

Next has produced Hamish across a wide selection of homeware, with known kitchen and tableware pieces including conventional mugs, stacking mugs, travel mugs, tumblers and coordinating kitchen accessories. As designs have changed and expanded over time, customers matching an existing piece should check both the shape and the particular Hamish decoration carefully.

At MrPottery we list our pre-loved Next Hamish pieces individually, helping you find the closest possible match for a favourite mug or other item from this cheerful Highland cow range.
