Description

Set of 2 Irish Handmade Coffee, Tea and Beer Mugs This Coffee/Tea/Beer Mug Set is part of the Glass and Hampton Blue Range made by Castle Arch pottery in Kilkenny. Each mug measures 3" in diameter with a height of 4.5". The mugs are high-temperature glaze finished which gives it a deep shine and robust qualities. The colors of the set are Green Glass or Hampton Blue green with touches of brown outlining. The shape of these mugs are 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. Treat yourself today to this quality set of handmade mugs!!! This makes a great gift as well!
