Handfasting Ribbons for Weddings

Tying the Knot?

Handfasting is an ancient Celtic tradition where a ribbon is ceremonially wrapped around a couple's hands at their wedding, symbolizing their life-long union. This was seen at the weddings of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, as well as Prince William and Kate. Our handfasting ribbons can be monogrammed with the couple's initials at either end and the date in the middle for a personal touch. Perfect as part of the couple's wedding accessories or as a gift from a family member or friend.

Ryan and Marissa chose a Howth Head handfasting ribbon for their wedding ceremony.

Dublin from the Hills

Dublin’s shimmering lights yield to ancient foothills, nestling the city from the south, resplendent in greens and greys.

As we walk here at sunrise and sunset, amongst swathes of pine and gorse, along smooth flowing streams and crunchy paths of shimmering granite, all peppered with minerals, lichen, flowers and buds.

Dublin wakes and sleeps beneath us, streams of cars and flickering streetlamps illuminate the road below all fading far in the distance into a slate blue sky.

Howth Head

The headland of Howth is the northern end of Dublin Bay,
a sweeping crescent of horizonless blue, mirrored on the south by Killiney Hill, with Bray Head beyond.

An all-engulfing swathe of scrub speckled with flowers of red and golden yellow heathers lies under a grey-blue sky, echoed in exposed karst, craggy shards of quartzite and mudstone, peppered with minerals in chartreuse and umber, punctuated by olive green gorse invading every crack.

Killiney Hill

Thousands of travellers pass daily under a secret world as Dublin’s DART train glides between it and the horizonless expanse of blue it looks onto - ‘Dublin’s Bay of Naples’. Rambling trails rise from sea to summit between tumbling walls, peppered with delicate flowers, concealing gorgeous Mediterranean gardens.

As we climb, we catch glimpses of Greystones and Bray, then Dublin Bay, the Great South Wall and Howth Head. Finally at the peak the views sweep to the south over the Wicklow Mountains and to the north over Dublin, as far as the Mournes in Ulster.

Ashford Moss No.1 - Silk and Linen Pocket Square
€125.00

The deepest of our 3 shades in the Ashford Moss story. Double-faced moss green Pocket Square, Silk and Linen, 23cm x 25cm, Woven and Handmade in Ireland. Available with either 4 stamp cut edges (or 3 stamp cut and 1 fringed edge).

Inspiration

The ancient island village of Cong straddles two counties on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way, between the loughs of Corrib and Mask. A sacred battleground in Celtic folklore, a 7th Century Abbey where Ireland’s last high king died, and later the backdrop to John Wayne’s ‘The Quiet Man’, this is a place where time doesn’t dare move.

At the centre of this village, accessible only through a series of turreted drawbridges guarded by footmen, Falcons & Great Irish Wolfhounds, is Ireland’s Neuschwanstein, Ashford Castle.

Inside its walled grounds every tree carries this unique iridescent moss, the texture of a dragon’s skin.

New York in the Fall. A train ride out from the city.

We pass through the woodlands amidst the falling leaves.

Each one drifts, unique like a snowflake, glowing, backlit in the Autumn sun, the orange and terra cotta tones give way to glimpses of green, the last dance of the season, giving life to the soil.

Pink Grapefruit No.2 - Orange/Pink Silk and Linen Pocket Square
€125.00

Double-faced Pink and Orange Pocket Square (available with 2 stamp cut edges and 2 fringed), Silk and Linen, 23cm x 25cm, Woven and Handmade in Ireland.

The slicing of a pink Grapefruit. Fluid Ruby red glistening fractals hiding under an eggshell sheen, porous (and oh so fragrant when you scratch, with a burst of juice like from an atomiser) skin in leathery blood orange. Leaves of crinkly green. And the mouth feel. The multi-sensory experience of it transcends language, sight, taste, smell, touch.

It’s one of many things I see in the source inspiration, and in the piece. But to you maybe it’s a fiery sunset on a hot Manhattan day. To me it is too.

Resplendent in green and grey, with hues of iron and wine, these ancient peaks lie to the south of the city, yet Dublin feels faraway hidden just beneath the Sugarloaf mountain.

Swathes of gorse and grass are broken up by shimmering slivers of granite - weather-worn into smooth streams and crunchy paths, both bordered by buds of burgundy and rust, all under a sweeping stripe of cool grey sky.

Horizonless

We surge out to the cliffside from the shadows of a tunnel.   Our pulses suddenly outpace the rhythm of our train as we hurtle through space, sweeping across the open bay along the edge of a cliff.   Our senses are drenched in the horizonless expanse before us.

Our faces are pressed against the glass for fear of missing any of this endless symphony, arranged from a chorus of sand, sea and sky. Read more & watch our video below

Horizonless Silk & Linen Necktie

Necktie in tightly woven silk and linen, horizonless pale blue, Handmade in Ireland

The train and its comforting rhythm takes us through tunnels in the dark, and with a fluorescent shock we hurtle onto a cliffside:

An endless expanse of beige & blue engulfs every sense with charging calm. Gliding through space, even breath can pause:

Sea and sky are one, pulse can find its pace.
