Love the farm mugs plates and jugs Older ones have the thin lip that is so good when sipping early morning coffee. I do not like the new pattern for farm mugs and wish the farm house was still available in old large mug pattern.

Just HAD to get this one for my baby bro, especially to comemorate his 1st trip to Ireland and our stay on a sheep farm in Carnew. I’m totally addicted to the expertise & skill of Nicholas Mosse’s crafters. Greatest pottery in the world 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Customer photo review of Large Mug Sheep

Love all these animal mugs and bought this as a replacement as someone had dropped mine. Everyone loves them.

Large Mug Sheep

I ordered one of your sheep mug recently. I got excited because I didn't think I could ever find that mug again. Mind you, this particular mug as been in my family for more than 20 years, but, as I discovered, when my parents ordered it, it arrived broken, my dad had to mend it, and after that, it was never used to drinking beverages. So I thought to myself, what a thoughtful gift to acquire a new mug than my dad could finally drink out of! In my family, we all loved the particular thiness of the rim of the original mugs we possessed (the sheep one, unused, the strawberry mug and the blueberry mug), but what a disappointment to discover that after all these years, your rim has become so thick! I figured it might be to avoid the kind of accident that happened to my parents when shipping your mugs but... I'm sure you know the importance of a thin rim when drinking tea. I'll still be happy to be able to present this gift to my father but I'm not sure that I'll buy more mugs from you... (This time, the packaging for transport was top class, no complain at all)

I purchased replacements for 2 mugs that I had damaged. This is my favorite pattern and I’m so glad they were still available. I have every piece in the Sheep pattern and am hoping there will be additional pieces made 🐑🐏🐑🐏

I got it for my partner so that she would have one to match the one I have, which I got almost 20 years ago in a shop in Madison, CT, USA, that used to sell Nicholas Mosse products. I also enjoy the use if 6 of the smaller barnyard cups, as well as a sugar bowl and creamer, plus a Nicholas Mosse clock with the same animals.

For many years I have been collecting Mosse cups, small and large. Recently someone chipped the rim of my favorite large cup. I replaced it with one that was beautiful, but not as elegant and delicate as the old ones. I was disappointed. It was thicker and not as lovely as those in my collection.

I ordered as a gift (that's already been shipped!). The mug cam wonderfully packaged - lots of bubble wrap/padding. Very well done - marked fragile. I unwrapped to make sure all was well - it was! Thank you Nicolas Mosse for a beautiful gift shipped with care from Ireland!

Large Mug | Sheep

I would love more - the cow, the horse, suck, etc. i have the chicken, dog and now the sheep. sorry ithe farm animals sre discontinued.

Large Mug | Sheep

The product arrived punctually and intact. The mug is a replacement for one which was broken. It is just as nice as my previous mug and the variations in the motif show how individual each piece of Mosse pottery is.

Large Mug | Sheep

I really like all of the Nicholas Mosse pottery, and so does anyone who sees it. It's a shame that the linen does not ship to England.

Large Mug | Sheep

Bought my first sheep mug in Lahinch six years ago, loved it, used it often, and when I dropped and broke it recently, my heart broke, too. So glad to have a replacement, which I will handle more carefully.

Large Mug | Sheep

Love the sheep mug. I noticed it’s a bit heavier than my dog mug. But that’s ok.

Large Mug | Sheep

Replaces a mug I damaged. This one matches the ones I already have.

Sturdy mug of the highest quality.

Large Mug Sheep

I absolutely ADORE Nicholas Mosse pottery! I purchased my first mug when I visited Ireland five years ago at Kilkenny Design in downtown Kilkenny. When my mom and I returned to Ireland for a vacation this past October, I excitedly took her to Kilkenny Design to purchase another mug. Unfortunately, Kilkenny Design didn’t have the shamrock mug I wanted, but I purchased the beautiful fuchsia mug. One of the retail ladies at Kilkenny Design mentioned the sheep mug, but we couldn’t find it any stores, and we had no idea we just minutes away from the Nicholas Mosse retail store. I purchased this mug for my mom for Christmas, and it arrived safely packaged and very quickly (it took about a week to ship to Texas)! I’m excited to enjoy this mug for many years to come!

These mugs are perfect for hot drinks. The handle stays cool. The cup never slips out of my husband's hand! He is 93 years old. We bought our first ones many years ago and were thrilled to look up the web site and order them so easily.

Large Mug Sheep

This mug is gorgeous and is for my brother in law in Ireland, who has just got a flock of sheep. A star is lost as I have bought so much of NM pottery this year as I love it, but I have been sent seconds on a good few occassions. They have sent me new pieces since but maybe they are so busy that these pieces are slipping through the net... I have juat purchased a large bowl in the 20% off sale online and really hoping this isn't a seconds sale as that wasn't stated... Otherwise ...their product is amazing and their designs are stunning...

Large Mug Sheep

We have been collecting NM pottery since our first trip to Ireland in 1995. The patterns are contemporary but reference hand thrown pottery of Ireland's past. Especially like Sheep pattern here on our sheep farm in Vermont.

Large Mug Sheep

They are lovely mugs , I have admired them at Cowslip Quilters in Cornwall. Wish I could have it all

Large Mug Sheep

I love all of the items that I purchased. I had seen them in Ireland a year ago and decided to treat myself to a few pieces for my Birthday.

How this product is made

Every piece of Nicholas Mosse undergoes a 20-step, handmade process.

Basic Forming

Clay comes from the ground and we mix different sorts of clays to create our own, high quality earthenware. We dig, blunge, sieve, filter and pug the clay to form extruded logs of wet clay, which are then cut into the exact size and weight for each item. The thrower takes this lump and centers and forms it on an electric potter’s wheel.
