Inspiration For The Colours
(Inspioráid do na dathanna)
Sliabh Foy green
A dark mysterious green reflecting the patchwork of trees and fields that make up the omnipresent Carlingford mountain.
Cooley Summer Yellow
A soft earthy yellow with hints of ‘hazy’ blue reflecting the barley fields surrounding Whitestown and Shelling hill during the summer months.
Corcra Chait
Heather hues of Omeath—purple, red, and lavender—especially at “The Long Woman’s Grave.” The Long Woman was Kathleen (Chait); “corcra” is Irish for purple

We received one of The Celtic Clays mugs as a gift. It is wonderful, so we felt compelled to order the other three colors to complete a set. Ciaran is wonderfully communicative. Our new mugs arrived in the US exactly when he said they would and were very well packed. They are not just beautiful, but are also practical. The handle feels very good in the hand and the weight and size are perfect.

The pottery at Celtic Clays is beautifully crafted and well designed!! It was a pleasure to work with Ciaran. He is delightful!! He is an artist who pays attention to detail. I love the unique symbolism in his pottery pieces. He did some custom pottery for me and kept me informed through the whole process. (Even sent photos) I received two shipments from him and everything was so well packed. No Breakage!! Highly recommend Celtic Clays!!

I knew I wanted a set of dishes from Ireland. Something made in, and out of, the homeland of my immigrant ancestors, something that my family could use to connect to our roots while breaking bread together. I scoured Google maps and clicked on every search result for “Irish pottery” that showed up, until I came upon an artist whose work spoke to me from across the ocean. My connection to Celtic Clays was instant. I showed my husband, my mom, my children, and we all agreed on the purchase. In no time at all, we received two pristine sets of 4 dinner plates, perfectly packaged. Each plate is a unique work, substantial in the hand, with a depth of color and texture that will be a true joy on our table every day. To top it all, I found a new friend in Ciaran – a high quality human — and we look forward to future purchases from Celtic Clay.

We bought our first pieces of Celtic Clays pottery over 20 years ago, then received an assortment of pieces as wedding gifts the following year. We have used our pitcher, bowls and mugs daily since then and they’ve kept up beautifully. We unfortunately broke 2 pieces (dropped them) over the years, so we stopped by Ciaran’s workshop to replace them. We ended up buying several more pieces as well, which were very carefully packaged and shipped back to the US to greet us on our return. The quality of craftsmanship and the durability of Celtic Clays pieces is second to none – excellent for gifts as well as your own home!

Beautiful Irish mugs and a Claddagh picture received again! The craftsmanship is really good, the goods are artistically outstanding. The service and communication were very friendly, very prompt and any problems were resolved. I can only recommend Celtic Clays to everyone!

I am so happy to have discovered “Celtic Clay”. Each piece is absolutely beautiful, genuinely hand crafted and made with great love and care. If you are looking for a special gift from Ireland, look no further. The mugs I bought are a special gift to myself. They arrived this morning, safe and sound, all individually well packaged. I’m now looking forward to drinking my tea from these mugs, knowing that I am holding a very special piece of Irish craftsmanship in my hands. Thank you so much for them and I definitely will be back for more.

Over the years, I have bought Celtic Clays items both here in the states and in Ireland. I was very happy to hear they were back in business in recent years. I have a variety of mugs, covered dishes and plates. While they would be worthy of just being display items, all are in regular use. I’ve never had so much as a chip, Recently, I ordered customized plates. Ciaran kept me abreast of each step in the process, even sending little videos at various stages. Even an “ocean away”, the communication is great and the shipping is worry free. The website is very well done and each item that I have purchased is exactly as described. I highly recommend Celtic Clays as “the real deal”

In addition to master level skill, Ciaran is a pleasure to deal with. What else can be said after that ?

I purchased a large square platter and dip bowl as a gift for my mother-in-law, she loved it! A truly beautiful and unique gift. The owner reached out when they couldn’t fulfill my entire order and offered suggestions for replacement or different shipping (I am in the states). I will definitely be ordering from Celtic Clays again!
