Wild Goose Studio, Cairdeas / Friendship

Sale price€65,00

The Irish word cairdeas holds that very important idea which underpins our most important relationships: friendship. Words have been cherished in Ireland since the first lines were carved on Ogham stones and they are celebrated in the song, poetry and the art of everyday conversation.

After years in decline, the Irish language is experiencing a resurgence and its beauty can be seen in this award-winning design, originally carved by Adam Grabski. This piece is part of our Scríobh Range which celebrates popular Irish words and phrases.

Dimensions: 8.5 x 11.5 inches (21.5 x 29cm)

With a white wood frame

Our part for the planet 

We’re well aware of the impact that consumer purchasing decisions can have on the environment. As a retailer, we feel our highest responsibility is to ensure that we’re taking measures to minimize our impact, and the impact of our customers' purchases, on the environment. 

Here are some of the ways we plan to play our part for the planet: 

  • Sustainable packaging 
  • Re-use of cardboard and brown paper received from suppliers in customer orders 
  • Continuously educate our team about the environmental crisis and explore ways that we can use our business to help 
  • Deal primarily with Irish suppliers to minimize our carbon footprint 
  • Aiming to be plastic free

Who we are

Quinlans was started by Brigin and John P Quinlan in Macroom, County Cork. We’ve had some fantastic people join our team over the years, and any success that we’ve had is as much theirs as it is ours. Our current team is small and we pride ourselves on cultivating a culture where people can be themselves at work, feel safe and appreciated, and have an opportunity to continuously learn and develop.

Quinlans want to offer you an enjoyable and memorable experience when choosing a special gift for you or a loved one

There’s something special about seeing a person master his or her craft. We’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the most talented Irish and European craft makers, from ceramics and glass to jewellery and textiles. We carefully choose the suppliers we work with and operate through trust and transparency to ensure lasting relationships are formed. We value getting to know the people behind the products that we offer.
