Rooted in Irish design
Kilkenny Design began in 1963, when the Irish government set up the Kilkenny Design Centre in Kilkenny City. Craftspeople came from around the world to share their skills and help Irish makers build their own businesses.
Its shops still champion Irish makers and designers, and each Kilkenny Café sits inside one of them, so lunch comes with a browse through Irish pottery, jewellery, knitwear and gifts.
