Postage is extra.

.
For sale is a pair of nicely made cups and a sugar bowl from one of the Youghal pottery studios. Probably made by Tony Breslin's Youghal Pottery of Quarry Road in Youghal, County Cork.

These were hand-made with an overall mustard-brown glaze and a hand applied whitish drip-glaze to create unique patterns on all their wares. The base of the mugs are printed with the pottery name YOUGHAL and the sugar bowl is hand-inscribed into the base as YOUGHAL.

Youghal Pottery was established in 1966 by Tony Breslin and from 1995 traded as Foxhole Youghal Pottery until it closed 2002. Youghal town has a long tradition of industry in the production of bricks and tableware pottery due to the abundance of suitable clays around the locality.
