My Story-Mo Scéal
Jewellery that speaks.
My jewellery has a story to tell.
Seodra a labhraíonn. Tá scéal le hinsint ag mo sheodra.
My inspiration for my collections comes from a great love of Irish history, poetry, storytelling, folklore and nature. As a result, I have designed and crafted several unique and charming collections.
I have many inspirations behind my collections but one of my most personal collections is entitled “Donie and The Dancing Master”. This collection is influenced by my father and a letter he had written in 1937 when he was in primary school. I came across this letter a few years ago. The letter describes the process of making a puppet like figure using wood, that of which I recreated using silver and gold with gemstones.
Handcrafted with care.
One of the most refreshing and vibrant collections is called “Daisy Field”. This collection reminds me of my childhood, running through fields and making daisy chains on summer days.
My Jigs and Reels collection are an expression and celebration of traditional Irish music. I believe that music is one of the greatest gifts of all as it brings people of all ages and types together in harmony.
My personal views along with my heritage can also influence my designs. An example of this is my collection titled “Square Peg In A Round Hole”. This comes from the traditional saying of “You can’t fit a peg into a round hole”. Perhaps everyone can relate to this feeling of not fitting in at some point in their lives.
I am from Loughmore, Templemore, County Tipperary. I have always been a maker and in recent years, I began a new chapter in my life, exploring the arts and discovering my true passion.
Each piece is individually handcrafted with care.
I am an affiliated member of The Irish Jewellers and Silversmiths Guild and also The Design and Craft Council of Ireland.
