This exquisite porcelain Belleek Thistle vase decorated with a charming diamond pattern that is adorned with blue colored thistle flowers and rich green leaves has the 6th. mark on the bottom that shows it was made 1965-March 31,1981. In 1849 John Caldwell Bloomfield inherited the Castlecaldwell estate, which encompassed the village of Belleek, from his father. Mindful of the plight of his tenants in the aftermath of the potato famine he sought to provide some form of worthwhile employment. To his delight it revealed the necessary raw materials to make Pottery - feldspar, kaolin, flint, clay and shale. Bloomfield acquired partners in the venture, Robert Williams Armstrong an architect from London with an abiding interest in ceramics, and David Mc Birney, a wealthy Dublin merchant Raw materials, power, capital and transportation all in place, plans for the construction of a Pottery building were drawn up. On Thursday 18th November 1858 Mrs Bloomfield laid the foundation stone. By as early as 1865 the company had established a growing market throughout Ireland and England and was exporting pieces to the United States, Canada and Australia. Mc Birney died in 1882 and Armstrong in January 1884. A group of local investors acquired the property and a new venture, the Belleek Pottery Works Company Ltd began trading in August 1884. The new Company officially acquired all the property. A myriad of economic factors conspired to cause a change in Pottery ownership in 1983. In 1990 the company was sold again to an investment group. Dr. George Moore, originally from Dundalk and now living in the USA, was appointed Chairman and the company is run locally by a group of four Directors - John Maguire (Managing), Hugh Quinn (Sales and Marketing), Martin Sharkey (Finance) and Arthur Goan (Operations). Not only did the Belleek management team rejuvenate the Belleek enterprise, the also embarked upon an aggressive acquisition strategy which has seen the purchase of Galway Crystal (Galway City), Aynsley China (Stoke-on-Trent) and most recently Donegal Parian China (Ballyshannon, Co. Donegal). The Belleek Group today employs over 600 people with a yearly turnover of 40 million. The thistle is the emblem of Scotland and is used extensively with many early Belleek designs along with the Rose (England) and the shamrock (Ireland). This vase was first shown in the 1928 Belleek Catalogue. This vase remained popular for many years but was eventually retired in 1990. It wass available again last year as a Limited Edition of 750 in the 2010 Archive Collection.
