Description
This beautiful Welsh Dragon Tea Bag Holder is designed by Royal Tara Giftware and features a vibrant red Welsh dragon front and center. The Welsh Dragon has been used as a national symbol of Wales since at least the middle ages and was formalized by Henry VII in the 15th century as tribute to the Welsh troops who helped him win the War of the Roses and ascend to the English throne, becoming the first Tudor King of England and found a dynasty that lasted through Elizabeth I in 1603. Surrounding the dragon are Celtic knot patterns in bold red, green, blue, and yellow. The Celtic knot has been one of the most famous pieces of Celtic artwork for millennia. The tea bag holder is made from new bone china, a refined and durable material that can be placed in the dishwasher. Royal Tara, based in County Galway, Ireland for over 50 years specialized in unique Celtic designs and high quality functional craftsmanship.
