Celtic Ceramics was the trading name of Kilrush Pottery a town in County Clare Republic of Ireland. Celtic ceramic came about in1961 when a group of enthusiastic Clare businessmen and a group of German businessmen set up a pottery plant in Kilrush and great hope was that would replace the emigrant boat to England and America. The company was set up to encourage employment and economy in the west of Ireland and they had locations in Ennis, Connemara and Limerick. It operated very successfully until 1976 when it was taken over by Rosenthal. Sadly the enterprise did not last and the pottery closed in 1983.

The company had different marks. Kilrush Pottery named different collections after different areas in the west of Ireland. This item is in the category "Pottery & Glass\Cookware, Dinnerware & Serveware\Cup & Saucers".
