Irish Souvenir Mug from Cork Ireland, Carrigaline, Circa 1960s/70s

This Irish souvenir mug from Cork, Ireland, made by Carrigaline Pottery, is a charming piece. It’s not what you’d typically call a pub jug, but it would look right at home on the shelf of a traditional Irish pub.

The front of the Irish souvenir mug shows a horse-drawn caravan used by Irish Travellers, with what appears to be Blarney Castle in the background.

Blarney Castle is a medieval stronghold located in Blarney, a town in County Cork. Today, it’s a popular tourist spot, especially with American visitors. They come to kiss the Blarney Stone, hoping to gain the ‘Luck of the Irish’.
