Handcrafted Irish Hardwood Jewellery Dish – Olive Ash 🌿
Keep your favourite rings, cufflinks, earrings or small keepsakes safe in style with this handcrafted Irish hardwood jewellery dish. Compact enough for a bedside locker, dressing table, bathroom shelf or hallway table, it is a practical little piece of woodcraft with plenty of natural character.
 
The Wood 🌿
This jewellery dish is made from Olive Ash sourced locally in Tralee, Co. Kerry.
 
I make these square dishes from off-cuts from larger woodworking projects, which helps reduce waste in the workshop while turning smaller pieces of good Irish wood into useful handmade gift items.
 
Olive Ash is a beautifully characterful wood, with warm golden colouring, darker olive-like streaks and distinctive natural grain. The grain on this piece runs diagonally across the dish, creating a striking natural pattern that contrasts nicely with the straight edges.
 
Each dish is made and finished by hand in my workshop in Tralee, Co. Kerry.
 
Design & Finish
At the centre of the dish sits a turned cradle, shaped on the lathe. This can be used to hold rings securely or simply act as an elegant focal point for the piece.
 
The square shape gives the dish a clean, simple look while still allowing the natural Irish hardwood to remain the main feature.
 
Each dish is finished by hand and fitted with four small protective feet to lift the wood slightly from the surface and help protect furniture.
 
Size & Dimensions
● Approx. 81mm × 78mm × 21mm
● Weight: approx. 72g
● Turned cradle: approx. 63mm diameter × 16mm deep
 
Compact enough for everyday use, but still substantial enough to feel like a quality handmade piece.
 
Gift Box Included 🎁
This jewellery dish is supplied in a flat presentation gift box, making it easy to give as a thoughtful handmade Irish gift.
 
The box helps protect the piece and gives it a simple, tidy presentation for birthdays, anniversaries, Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Christmas, or small special occasions.
 
A Small Handmade Irish Gift
This compact jewellery dish is ideal for keeping small personal items safe and visible.
It works well beside the bed, near a sink, on a dressing table, or anywhere you regularly take off rings, cufflinks, earrings or small jewellery pieces.
 
It also makes a simple decorative piece that highlights the natural beauty of Irish hardwood.
 
Please Note
The rings and jewellery shown in the photographs are for demonstration purposes only and are not included in the sale.
 
Because each piece is made from natural wood and finished individually, grain patterns and small details will vary slightly, making every dish one of a kind.
