Traditional Irish Boat Pendants
The Irish Galway Hooker (Traditional Irish Boat) Collection
Inspired by the traditional Galway hooker, this exquisite collection embodies the spirit of the rugged Irish coastline and its storied maritime heritage. Designed by Deirdre O'Donnell in 2014 during a transformative summer in Connemara, each piece resonates with the elegance and resilience of these iconic boats, synonymous with strength and beauty.
The Galway hooker is distinguished by its sharp, clean entry and bluff bow, seamlessly merging form and function to navigate the challenging waters of Galway Bay. Reflecting this tradition, the collection features intricate designs and materials that evoke the rich textures of the sea, from the pitch-coated finishes reminiscent of the boats’ sleek hulls to the warm hues of the sails.
As interest in the Galway hooker sees a renaissance, our collection serves as a reminder of this cultural revival. Each piece encapsulates the enchanting allure of Connemara, a landscape steeped in tales of the sea, and the spirited festival of Cruinniú na mBád, where the air is charged with excitement as boats compete across the bay.
Having journeyed across the globe, the Irish Galway Hooker Collection continues to enchant customers, offering a tangible connection to this magical part of Ireland. It is not merely jewellery; it is a celebration of heritage, craftsmanship, and the enduring connection between land and sea, expertly captured by Deirdre O'Donnell.
The Classic Boat measures 27mm x 24mm and the Petite 12mm x 12mm x 2mm
