Foxford Woollen Mills Joe Queenan

Garrett Mallon Jewellery Garrett Mallon

A talented jewellery designer with a reputation for conceptual design, Fiona Mulholland’s jewellery comprises funky colourful pieces, pure form geometry, made of Plexiglas and silver, which use the natural edge of the glass to maximise its luminosity. Although constructed using modern manufacturing solutions, each piece is finished by hand.

Founded in 1892, Foxford Woollen Mills is situated on the river Moy in the heart of Co. Mayo and is one of the last working mills in Ireland. Employing over forty people, Foxford allows a tradition spanning thousands of years to survive and flourish. The luxurious range includes blankets, throws, rugs and scarves.

Goldsmith Garrett Mallon is a stone-setter by trade, and uses highly pigmented semiprecious stones set in silver. Local folklore inspires Garrett’s designs, Cloicín is a collection inspired by the stony shores of Carlingford Lough – his take on the torc.

Hanna Hats Of Donegal Ltd, Amanda, John Joseph & Eleanor Hanna

Grand Grand is the work of designer Fergus O’Neill, trained at Dun Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design and Technology and a believer in interdisciplinary collaboration and design through process. Kicking off with the ‘Keep Going Sure It’s Grand’ project, he now produces a range of silk-screened prints and greeting cards with the unique Grand Grand humour.

Linda Sheridan (interior designer) and Paula Stapleton (graphic designer) set up Green Gorgeous two years ago. Using sustainable industrial wool felt and toxin-free dyes, they make wall art and simple items for the table and more recently, a felt wine cooler. Next season, they plan to expand into eco rubber and resin.

Founded in 1924, Hanna Hats continue to create timeless tweed caps from the finest of Donegal Tweed. Every hat is assembled by hand at the factory in Donegal Town using locally woven tweeds including herringbone, houndstooth, checks, plaids and salt-and-pepper weaves; all key elements in the signature patchwork caps, hats and bags.
