Belleek Classic Claddagh Friendship Basket
Inspired by the beloved Claddagh ring, this handcrafted Belleek Claddagh Square Basket beautifully captures a story that has echoed through Irish hearts for over four centuries. At its centre sits the timeless Claddagh symbol—a heart beneath a crown, representing love, friendship, and loyalty—painted with delicate gold and mother of pearl detailing for an elegant, luminous finish.
According to legend, the Claddagh design originated when a Spanish goldsmith, captured at sea, was brought to Galway and fell in love with a local girl from the Claddagh village. The ring he created became a lasting emblem of love and fidelity, still exchanged today across Ireland and beyond. This basket pays tribute to that enduring story—woven in porcelain by the hands of Belleek’s master craftspeople.
Each side of the square features Celtic knotwork panels, symbolising eternity and interconnectedness, while the corners bloom with hand-painted pink roses, adding softness and romantic charm. The combination of texture, symbolism, and traditional Belleek craftsmanship makes this piece a meaningful centrepiece or gift.
