Home Made Mugs: Moulded with Love


Mud Irelands handcrafted products are created by head potter Josh Lyness. Through years of hard work and dedication, Josh has brought his ceramicist skills to the next level. Now we are delighted to showcase his beautiful handmade pieces. Find his signature on each and every mug, showcasing his skills and knowledge as an expert in the ceramics industry.

All of Mud Ireland's ceramics are made using ming porcelain. Known as white gold, this premium clay can only be found naturally in China. It has a luxurious, smooth feel and radiant white colour and takes skill and patience to work. After moulding by master potters the piece are coated in Mud Irelands unique glaze that has been scientifically developed to be both beautiful and scratch resistant. All pieces are then finished with 2 rounds in a kiln. This whole process takes a full 4 weeks.

Nimbus Mugs: Sadly gloomy nimbus clouds are a sure thing on your trip to Ireland! Well, fear not! At least you will have a beautiful mug of coffee to heat you up again...

Midnight Mugs: Inspired by the dark and rainy winter nights of Ireland, these handmade mugs will make a gorgeous memento for your trip!

Aqua Marine Mugs: Inspired by the weathered Belfast Skyline, the Signature Aquamarine Collection brings a deep copper blue to a stunning Aqua Marine mug.

The great quality and patience of the workmanship is clearly visible in the product I received from MUD Ireland, superior standard of glossing and overall finish and a solid bit of pottery which can be hard to find. Definitely buy again

I have been looking for some beautiful pieces of hand-thrown pottery to make a cup of tea very special. I found what I was after. I looked online to find a local potter and came across Mud Ireland. Simple, elegant design and a gorgeous, rich glaze. I am very happy and am looking forward to adding to my collection. Great customer service from Josh , thank you.
