The creation of each Belleek Basket tells us a story about the amazing art of Belleek basket making. Basket and flower making was introduced to Belleek by William Henshall who came to work for Belleek Pottery in the late 1860s. Over the next forty years he developed the craft and trained the local craftsmen in the necessary skills. These in turn passed their skills down through the following generations to the present day. With the use of hand painted Flowers, Butterflies and Dragonflies it is the perfect addition to your home.
It is important to note that due to the delicacy of these items, each piece is unique. Made by the skilled craftspeople in Belleek, they are all made and painted by hand, making the basket you buy, like no other. Hand made in Ireland.
