Shamrock Tableware, with its basket weave, is a timeless design first created in the 1880's. The simplicity of the pattern is based on the weave used in wickerwork baskets.The design also cleverly uses the stems of the shamrocks to shape such features as the handles and details of design. You can see this on the subtle handles of the bread plate. Belleek Shamrock remains an iconic collection, one symbolic of Belleek's long craft tradition. Hand Painted.
