Bring a true piece of Ireland into your home.
This handcrafted ornamental vessel is turned from solid native Irish hardwood, showcasing the natural beauty, colour and grain of our local timber. 🇮🇪

A Design That Draws the Eye 👀

Each vessel goes through six individual finishing stages, resulting in an incredibly smooth, tactile surface that feels silky in the hand.

Finishing Process ✨
Each vessel is finished with a blend of
● Sanding sealer
● Hampshire Sheen High Gloss Wax (x2)
● Tripoli buffing compound
● White Diamond buffing compound
● Carnauba wax buff
 
This brings the wood to life with a protective, glass-like sheen.
 
Possible Uses 🌸
Although designed as a decorative ornamental piece, the narrow opening can support a single dried flower, artificial stem, or another light decorative item.
● Irish decorative keepsake
● Gift for someone connected to Kerry
● Wedding or anniversary display

It’s also beautiful completely on its own — most people choose not to add anything because the wood speaks for itself.
