I am pleased to offer a unique pair of Portmeirion napkin rings. They are either Welsh Dresser or from the Llanelli hand painted series. The special Welsh Illanelli pattern was made by Portmeirion for Pugh Brothers Furniture during the 1990's.

I have never seen Welsh Dresser napkin rings so may not have ever been produced in that range. The pair is in excellent condition with no signs of use or wear.


This pattern, designed by Angharad Menna, emulates old Llanelli Ware. Produced for 100 years, but unable to compete with other potters, Llanelli Ware stopped production in the early 1900's. Portmeiron's Welch Dresser is a continuation of this art.

The Welsh Dresser pattern, unfortunately, was retired a few years ago and is becoming difficult to find.
