Kells Design on this Pocket Watch

The design on this watch is inspired by the Book of Kells, possibly the world's most famous manuscript. This design depicts two entwined birds, displayed in a beautiful Celtic knot. The birds on this watch look similar to cranes, which symbolize long life, health, happiness, wisdom and good luck.

This is a mechanical watch designed to capture that early Victorian look as portrayed by the gents of that time. The watch itself is a manual wind-up and the workings can be seen from both the front face and back. The chain is 12" in length and has a pocket clip on the end designed to slip on to the cuff of a pocket. Pewter Cufflinks are available as optional set.

The perfect gift for the groomsman and best man on a wedding day or a delightful gift for that special man in your life to celebrate any occasion. 

History of the Book of Kells

Also known as the Book of Colum Cille (one of Ireland's patron saints), the Book of Kells is one of Ireland's greatest and oldest tourist attractions. Created around 800 AD, it contains an illuminated manuscript of the Gospels. It remains one of the greatest examples of insular art (from 'insula', the Latin for 'island'), which combines Christian and Celtic design. The calligraphy and stylized illustrations feature Biblical figures as well as mythical beasts from local folklore. It was a masterful undertaking at the time, containing 340 pages of quality calf vellum, while the inks were imported from far-off lands. However it was never fully finished - it may have been put into hiding instead due to the threat of Viking raids. Its name comes from the Abbey of Kells in County Meath, though it was originally produced on the island of Iona off the coast of Scotland. Today it resides at Trinity College, Dublin.

Lovely tartan throw

This is lovely, soft and warm. I cannot remember the name of the tartan plaid but it is one of my favorites. Green, black and white, just lovely.

Mullingar Pewter Woodlands Beaker - "The Fox"

The perfect gift for a friend from far away who loves Irish craftsmanship and everything about the UK countryside. The foxes are beautifully detailed and the item is a unique and lovely keepsake I know they will treasure and enjoy for many years to come.

Absolutely lovely!

This a beautiful and so functional complete tea set for one. I love the clever nestled design! My mother had a lot of Beleek china so I grew up with it and this brings back so many memories! Thanks for preserving such a wonderful Irish heritage. I love it!
