Our favorite Irish shops

We combed the internet to find reliable resources for the most popular Irish products: Aran Isle sweaters, Guinness glasses, Waterford Crystal, genuine blackthorn walking sticks, the flag of the Republic and more. Some of these shops have become friends; others we trust from their reputations and some offer products that are completely unique.
There was one drawback that we discovered after we began featuring a specific product from a particular shop - sometimes, they would sell out of stock or the source would no longer be available. Our affiliates have the continuous task of keeping up. We have tried in the past, to track all of this and, well, it's no use. We can't possibly, so... We have decided to 'step out of the middle' and simply feature the affiliates themselves and links to their home pages.
To help you in your search for a certain type of product, crystal for example, we provide a brief description of each affiliate, a link to their feature page and a small sample of what they sell. Each item also has a link to the shop's home page where you will find a complete index of what's on offer.
We hope you enjoy browsing through the wonderful variety of quality items. We are confident you will find gifts for any occasion or person; all with an Irish flair.

The Traditional Irish Wedding

In this expanded, revised, and updated version, the author has added sections on Getting Married in Ireland and ideas for a vow renewal "with the sound and feel of Ireland." This edition also includes the origins of Irish Coffee; the truth about Aran Isle Sweaters and information about kilts. Available from many Irish and Celtic gifts shops or Amazon.


The Book: Potion, Pope & Perfidy
Now available in both Kindle & print editions!

A depressed detective, still in mourning for his murdered wife, stumbles into a money-laundering scheme when a book is sold to him by mistake at a library book sale. Written in Latin and Greek the book is a 14th century codex. Obviously a priceless antiquity, as the story unfolds it becomes clear that the book's value is more in its contents than its age. For more details, or to buy the book, please click Amazon.
