Hailing from Ireland, this charming pair of vintage shakers is crafted from Wade Irish Porcelain and features a distinctive, captivating glaze treatment. The overall palette shifts between earthy greens and rich ocean blues, showcasing an abstract, multi-colour finish that gives the pieces a lovely folk-art feel.

These pieces are robust and playful, perfect for bringing a subtle bit of Irish heritage to your dining setting.
