Part of the Belleek 2019 Masterpiece collection, the Laurel Basket is a truly unique and beautiful piece to add to the home. This basket is inspired by a laurel wreath, a symbol of victory and honor. The wreath dates back to ancient Rome, where handcrafted ring-shaped “wreaths” using bay leaves, small fruits & flowers were traditionally made. Bay leaves are used as the inspiration for the base of this design, and small ‘Valentine’ flowers are inspired from the Mountain Laurel found in California. Each flower is delicately hand-painted with tiny pink dots on a white ground, and the buds are painted using mother of pearl.

A truly special Irish gift.
