For a Special Christening

A framed handpainted Ogham baby name is a wonderful gift for a newborn to remember their special day! The script contains the baby's name in Ogham writing, along with their date of birth and weight. Each individual piece is handpainted on handmade paper by Ethel Kelly in Co. Roscommon, Ireland. 


Frame size: 19" x 5.5"

History of Ogham

Ogham (pronounced 'ohm') was the earliest form of writing in Ireland, existing from the 4th-9th centuries AD. Typically etched into stone or wood, it consists of a series of strokes along a line, where the strokes' quantity, length, and direction determine the letter. Most of the letters correspond to the Roman alphabet, with a few local additions, so in fact, it's a translatable cipher rather than a language, read from the bottom-left upwards. 
Some historians believe it may have been used as a secret alphabet that Roman Britain wouldn't be able to understand, while others suggest it may have been developed by early Christian communities as a form of shorthand. Most surviving examples are found on stone monuments in southern Ireland, though there are also some inscriptions in the west of Britain too, particularly in Wales.

Belleek Connemara Vase

I absolutely love this vase. I first saw it in Adare, Ireland. When I returned home, I searched for it online. Gifts of Ireland had the best price. It arrived safely and now it has a special place in my home.
