Belleek Echinus Tea Ware
Belleek Echinus Tea Ware. Pronounonced (E-k-inus). The name is derived from the Greek ekhinos meaning - hedgehog skin. Echinus Demotter is the proper name for the see urchin upon which this design by Mrs. Annie Langley Narine (FRS) is based. The real see creature has 5 radii. Belleek's deviation sometimes has six. Queen Victoria ordered one of these tea sets for herself and another to give as a present to the Empress of Germany.
