The Emma Bridgewater Sweet Pea Mug beautifully showcases the delicate Sweet Pea flower with a vibrant mix of red, purple, blue, green, and pink hues.
Origins & Symbolism
Sweet Pea, part of the Lathyrus family, hails from the scenic regions of Sicily, southern Italy, and the Aegean Islands. This flowering plant, which can grow up to 2 meters tall, was popularised by a Scottish horticulturist through crossbreeding.
During the Victorian era, Sweet Peas were highly prized for their elegant appearance and sweet scent. “Sweet Pea” derives from the Greek word ‘Lathyrus,’ meaning ‘pea’ or ‘pulse.’ Traditionally, Sweet Peas are given as tokens of gratitude or farewells, symbolising ‘goodbye.’
