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

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 each is impressed with the pottery name 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.

These mugs sold as a pair only.
