Unique Irish Gifts in Our Housewares Dept.
Wish others friendship, happiness & blessings with traditional Irish serveware. "May friends and family bring light to the cottage, warmth to the hearth, and joy to the soul." ~An Irish Proverb
For something a wee bit more impish... Tickle everyone's inner leprechaun with a funny fridge magnet:
Unique Irish Gifts for the Gourmet
Perhaps the Emerald Isle isn't noted for fine gourmet cuisine. But what comforts a soul better than a bit o' soda bread and stout?
Start every day with Lucky Irish Breakfast tea. But be warned—the wee folk be fond of this traditional, hearty brew, so it has a habit of disappearing from our shelves. Therefore, it's best to snag one right up if you can catch it.
Unique Irish Gifts in Alex and Ani
Carry four leaf clovers with you on these Alex and Ani bracelets. Each of the leaves symbolizes a blessing: one for love, one for hope, one for faith, and one for luck, of course. The mystique of four leaf clovers goes back to the early days of Ireland. At this time, they were used as Celtic charms to offer magical protection. Children in the middle ages believed that holding one would allow them to see fairies.
Charity by Design
Or choose the classic Irish symbol of love, the claddagh. It represents the sharing of your heart. Giving one is a double gift because purchases benefit the Boston Celtics Shamrock Foundation.
Leprechaun Party Wear in Stationery
Let out the leprechaun and kick up your heels! To that end, pick up festive items for a big St. Paddy's Day bash or simple shenanigans with your own clan.
Fragrances of Ireland in the Bath Shop
This is one of the most unique Irish gifts around. Inis Energy of the Sea is a unisex scent inspired by the wild western coast of Ireland. The word Inis means "island." Its clean and energizing perfume gives the feel of sunshine on your face and the Emerald Isle's sand between your toes. Find it in cologne, lotions, oils, and diffusers.
