Each year, as St. Patrick’s Day approaches, we are proud to unveil a special addition to our much-loved, limited edition Irish Rose collection — a tradition that is welcomed our Nicholas Mosse collectors around the world.
For 2026, we are delighted to introduce the new Irish Rose Lidded Jar — a versatile and dainty piece of authentic handmade Irish spongeware pottery, crafted in Ireland and designed to be treasured for years to come.
A St. Patrick’s Day Collectible with Meaning
For many of our customers globally, St. Patrick’s Day is more than a celebration — it is a connection to Irish heritage, family roots and a shared love of Ireland’s culture and craft. Our annual Irish Rose release has become a meaningful way to mark the occasion with something lasting and beautifully made.
The Irish Rose pattern, with its rich green shamrock motif and hand-sponged detailing, captures the spirit of Ireland in a way that feels both traditional and refined. Each year’s new Irish Rose piece adds to a growing series of collectible handmade Irish pottery — building a story that unfolds year on year.
The Craft of Irish Spongeware
Every piece is handcrafted in our Kilkenny workshop. Our spongeware technique — where each motif is individually hand-applied with carefully cut sponges — ensures that no two pieces are ever identical. This is the beauty of true handmade pottery made in Ireland.
Customers searching for authentic Irish pottery, traditional spongeware and handcrafted Irish ceramics will find that the Irish Rose collection reflects both heritage and quality.
Designed to Be Used and Loved
The lidded jar is as practical as it is decorative. Ideal for storing tea, sugar, biscuits or treasured keepsakes, it brings a touch of Irish charm to kitchens and homes everywhere. Styled on a countertop, dresser or dining table, it becomes both a functional piece and a symbol of connection to Ireland.
As part of our annual Irish Rose series, this latest release continues a story rooted in tradition — celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with colour, craftsmanship and heritage.
Wherever in the world you celebrate, the Irish Rose Lidded Jar is a little piece of Ireland, handmade and heartfelt — created to be enjoyed not just for a season, but for generations.
