    The glory of Belleek and its speciality is the exquisite Parian or ivory china, which includes dinner, breakfast, tea services and toilet sets. Many of the pieces have shamrock decorations.
    Which all goes to prove that “the true benefactors of Ireland are the manufacturers.” And where you have beauty combined with business, that is industry in excelsis.
