GLENARM POTTERY
is located in a Georgian Style House once
owned by the Earl of Antrim. Early Stone
settlements and the arrival of the Celts
are the main influences on the work of Glenarm
Pottery.
Glenarm Pottery’s specialist
range is the delicate Sgrafitto work. The
Celtic designs are gathered from many sources
and all have meaning and history. Some have
been adapted form the Book of Kells while
others are from artefacts found at burial
and ceremonial sites throughout the Celtic
World.
