Celtic Peacock, Porcelain Mug
This porcelain mug featuring a Celtic peacock is inspired by richly decorated medieval Irish manuscripts, particularly the illuminated illustrations of the four Gospels, which often featured colourful ornaments and details embellished with gold.
The peacock was a symbol of immortality and eternal life in early medieval Christian art. Its magnificent, colourful tail, with its characteristic eye-shaped markings, was also associated with foresight and the ability to see into the future. The peacock thus became part of the rich symbolism of Irish and Celtic art.
The mug is made from fine porcelain. Its colourful ornamentation recalls the elaborate decoration of famous Irish illuminated manuscripts.
