Radley Cosy Up mug and sock set has been recalled by the business due to fears that the base of the mug could crack while it has hot liquid in it.

Anyone who has purchased the gift set is being advised to return it to their nearest Boots location as soon as possible.

The Cosy Up set, which includes a ceramic mug and a pair of ribbed socks, carries the barcode 5016155273331 on the back and features the Radley dog logo on the front.

Boots have confirmed that they were made aware of a "potential" safety issue and have issued a recall as a result.

The Christmas gift set

The product was made in China and sold between August 30 and December 6 this year. A Boots spokesperson said: "We have been informed of a potential safety issue with the mug in this set. In some instances, the base of the mug is cracking and separating when in use, therefore, this product is being recalled."

They added: "The safety and well-being of our customers is very important to us. We're asking that you stop using the mug and return it to your nearest Boots store at your earliest convenience for a full refund. If you’ve bought this product for someone else, it’s important that you let them know about this as soon as possible."
