This beautiful teapot is decorated with a classic Irish design featuring interwoven Celtic knot patterns in rich green, blue, yellow, and red accents.

In the Celtic mythology of ancient Ireland the Shamrock or 3 Leaf Clover was associated with magical powers. According to Celtic mythology the number 3 was a powerful number. Later St Patrick used the Shamrock to teach the Celtic people about God. Today the Shamrock is widely associated with Ireland and is worn with pride on St. Patrick's day celebrated worldwide. This bone china teapot depicts a shamrock in the style of 9th century ancient Celtic manuscripts which would have been painted by monks onto vellum or calf skin.
