St Brigids Crosses

Time and experience is gone into the making of our St brigids crosses.

We harvest the rushes in the lakes of Munster then dry them slowly to prevent splitting. Each one is handmade as St Brigids had show the people of Ireland  back in 473 AD. 

It is still customary on 1 February to plait Saint Brigid's Crosses, in the hope that they will protect a household in the year ahead.

Marble

Using the beautiful marble that is unique to Connemara in the West of Ireland, we have a selection of products that capture the rare beauty of this green marble. The marble of Connemara can be found in the world's great monuments for example in the halls of Trinity College Dublin, Kensington Palace and on the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

(Hand carved and hand polished by skilled craftsmen from the highest quality of Connemara Marble. Mined from controlled quarries under the shadows of the 12 Bens Mountains in Connemara, Ireland. The marble was formed over 700 million years ago.

It has been used over the centuries as a means of exchange, for fixtures in stately buildings, and is recognised for it's beautiful colour and resilience, with no pieces being similar. It is the tradtional gift between families who vow friendship through generations.)
