About

In Kinsale, County Cork master crystal cutter, Gerry Daly set up his crystal venture. Gerry Daly discovered that cutting at a higher angle than other crystal crafts men resulted in a magnificent silvery sparkle. The finished piece had a very crisp, sharp feel to it. When placed next to the standard production range, Gerry's deep cut piece completely out-sparkled them. The business is now run by Gerry's two sons and they are happy to demonstrate how they learned the craft from their father. Kinsale Crystal product range includes bowls, vases, stemware, tumblers, lamps, decanters and chandeliers. Many of these products come on handmade mahogany bases. The shop also offers a personalised engraving service where pieces can be customised with dates, names or family crests. Seán Daly specialised in engraving nature, wildlife and landmarks and is skilled to meet any engraving requests.This shop is located in Kinsale, a picturesque, popular and fashionable town in the south-west of Ireland.

It is also famous for its gourmet restaurants, art galleries and golf courses. For those who would like to improve their English, there is the excellent Kinsale School of English.
