General information

Belleek Pottery (established in 1857) is part of a group of 3 companies which includes Aynsley China in Stoke on Trent and Galway Crystal, Co Galway. Together they are a formidable supplier of fine products to the giftware and tableware markets.

Just last year the Belleek Pottery entered into to the fashion jewellery market and, because of its success, has now moved on to develop jewellery in UK hallmarked sterling silver and bridal. Many new jewellery products have been launched in 2010 at the Dublin Gift Fair as well as fine dining and giftware products.

Belleek Pottery is also home to one of Northern Ireland's finest and best known Visitor Attractions. Each year over 170,000 visitors are welcomed through it's doors. It is very unique in that it has now become one of the few attractions in Ireland and GB that offers the visitor an opportunity to walk around the factory and see the complete production process whilst chatting with the craftspeople.
There is also a museum showing some of the old stoneware products which the Pottery made back in the late 1800s as well as more modern early 1900 fine china products. A self service restaurant caters for 90 people overlooking the River Erne and the Showroom displays all of the products that the Group of Companies have in their product ranges.
The historic building is situated just at the end of Belleek Main Street and overlooks the River Erne. A dedicated pic nic area is also available in the grounds for a snack in the sun....
