There’s no shortage of Irish designers creating jewellery that’s unique and ultra-desirable. From Inner Island’s recycled gold and silver jewellery pieces to Stonechat’s jewellery remodelling service it’s a native industry underwritten with sustainable thinking, too. The last two years have been a challenging time for Irish retail, so if you do one thing this Valentine’s Day, support Irish. Scroll on for the Irish jewellery brands you should have on your radar.

Just back from showing at New York’s prestigious Shoppe Object, Inner Island is a go-to for contemporary jewellery pieces with forever appeal. Owner Gemma O’Leary excels in creating standout pieces with freshwater pearls. Our favourite? The elegantly refined Strata pearl earrings steal the show. 

Cork based The Silver Loom launched during Covid-19 and has been making strides ever since. With a background in fashion and architecture, creators of the brand – couple Izabella Balikoti and Andrew O’Ciardubháin – seek to make pieces with a sense of permanence that will have just as much appeal in 20 years as they do today. 

With the ethos of ‘be your own muse’, Momuse is a jewellery brand that specialises in dainty jewellery that’s meticulously curated by founder and maker Margaret O’Rourke. Whether it’s a buy-now-wear-forever pendant chain or a pair of simple gold huggie earrings for everyday wear, there’s always something to love at this unique treasure trove.

Based in Dublin’s Westbury Mall, Stonechat boasts a contemporary range of jewellery created by founder Ann Chapman at the in-store workshop as well as an impressive remodelling service.

The brainchild of TV personality Angela Scanlon, My Frkl is a fun-loving jewellery brand that encourages customers to play up the part of themselves others believe to be ‘imperfect’ or not the norm. Mix and match charms or wear one of its divine freshwater pearl necklaces on its own as a chic statement.

Gemologist and jewellery designer Natasha Sherling creates exquisite fine jewellery pieces from her studio in Dublin’s Wicklow Street. A favourite for brides, a fine jewellery piece by Sherling is a hallmark of quiet luxury while the designer’s ready-to-wear line is shoppable through her site.

Whether she’s collaborating with New York based style influencer Retro Flame or bringing to life a fresh and luxurious campaign shoot, founder of Loulerie Louise Stokes always has her finger on the pulse of what’s now. With a location in Chatham Street, visit the store and lust after the array of delicate and dainty necklaces (the personalised initial disc pendants are a popular favourite for good reason) as well as a fine jewellery range.
