As you arrive into Bantry, the brightly coloured buildings of The Craft Shop have been a familiar icon in West Cork for almost 50 years.

The Craft Shop is one of the jewels of West Cork, and of the Wild Atlantic Way. It’s a true tabernacle of good things, judiciously chosen, artfully arranged, and nothing less than the most discriminating showcase of the finest arts and crafts of the entire West Cork region.’

John & Sally McKenna, Ireland The Best

The hand-crafted Irish products we sell are all originals. Every product shown here is handmade and is therefore unique. The item you order online will be similar to the product in the photo but not identical. Every item is uniquely made by the craftworker so you can be assured that no-one else has an exact copy of your special piece.

This exclusive quality of craftwork is our hallmark and is what makes our shop different.

Our shop has been here in Bantry for almost 50 years

Our shop has been here in Bantry for almost 50 years

I opened The Craft Shop in 1974 and, almost 50 years later, it continues to showcase the work of many of the original craftspeople with whom the Craft Shop has been associated. Colleen, my daughter, now works alongside me in the shop, discovering new artisans, and bringing her own style to the shop.

We love welcoming people into our shop in Bantry, browsing, perusing, taking pleasure in the delight that these beautiful things bring to our lives. And if you can’t make it to Bantry, we hope that our site gives you a true sense of the work we sell, and we look forward to posting the crafts you choose, wherever in the world you may be.
