Malin Head
$22.00
The last cliff at the top of Inishowen, where the Wild Atlantic Way runs out. Banba's Crown sits on the highest point, a square Napoleonic-era tower keeping watch over water that goes uninterrupted to Iceland. On clear nights the aurora finds its way down here, Ireland's northernmost outpost, dark enough that the green light shows. Below the tower, white stones spell EIRE 80 across the heather, a wartime message to pilots that the land they were crossing was neutral ground. The wind comes off the Atlantic without asking.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
