Promoting over 160 years of craftsmanship, Belleek Pottery is located in the quaint village of Belleek in Co. Fermanagh on the banks of the River Erne. This Neo-Georgian building is home to Ireland’s oldest working fine china pottery. Established in 1857, Belleek Pottery holds a very special place in Ireland’s cultural and commercial heritage. They were producing more than 100,000 pieces of pottery annually, passing through 16 pairs of hands. The Belleek Group comprises world-renowned gift and tableware brands of Belleek Classic, Belleek Living, Galway Irish Crystal, and Aynsley China.

The Belleek Claddagh collection is inspired by the history of the Claddagh which goes back over four hundred years when a Spanish goldsmith fell in love with a girl from the Claddagh village. He crafted the first Claddagh ring for her. Since then the Claddagh ring has become a token of love throughout the world. Its symbols of a heart under a crown held by hands represent love, friendship, and loyalty.
