Set of 2 Irish Handmade Coffee & Tea Mugs This Coffee Mug Set is made in Kilkenny Ireland by Castle Arch Pottery Studio. Each mug holds 300ml and measures 3" in diameter with a height of 4". Each mug has the Castle Arch Studio trademark Celtic Spiral logo stamp. The mugs are high-temperature 100% lead free glaze finished which gives a deep shine and robust qualities. The shape of these mugs is perfect for wrapping your hands around on those cold mornings. A native of Cork, Ray Power set up Castle Arch Pottery in the Autumn of 1993 in Kilkenny's famous Castle Yard, which sits under the gaze of Kilkenny Castle. Each piece is made in small production batches on the potter's wheel, allowing great attention to be paid to decorative details such as handles, sprigs and to the fluent slip-trailed decoration with embossed surfaces. The penultimate stage sees each piece bisque fired to 1000cc before the final glazing and firing again to 1200cc. This guarantees the pottery will be both microwave and dishwasher safe. This traditional approach, typical of Irish country potteries, ensures that Castle Arch Pottery maintains its unique character. The glazes used are both luscious and eye catching which have been developed over the past 15 years.
