Beatrice gets the last word before the cup reaches the table. This dark teal ceramic coaster gives one of Much Ado About Nothing's sharpest romantic refusals a fittingly social place to land.

Beatrice at the Table

Her verified "I had rather hear my dog bark at a crow than a man swear he loves me" retort appears in gold over a script background, with the play title and a pair of theatrical masks. The design lets Beatrice's voice lead, rather than softening the comedy into generic romance.

Give the Retort Room

The 10 x 10cm square format gives the full line enough space to be read beside a mug or glass. To care for the ceramic coaster, wash it gently by hand, do not soak it and leave it to air dry.

For the Friend with the Faster Reply

Choose it for someone whose wit tends to arrive before sentiment. A Much Ado reader will recognise Beatrice from the first clause. It is a small gift, but the specificity of the line makes the choice feel considered.
