Irish crystal has always been a firm favourite for those seeking the perfect gift from Ireland for a special event or occasion. In particular, the elegance and stylish craftsmanship of Waterford Crystal has proven to be universally popular throughout the years whether it is being used as a special gift for a friend or family member or, perhaps, as a prize giving award for a sporting event.
Waterford Crystal was been manufactured in Ireland for over 200 hundred years since its establishment in the heart of Waterford City in Ireland's south east region. Brother's George and William Penrose established the crystal manufacturing business back in 1783 and soon become renowned for the stylish and intricate designs which adorned its crystal stemwear.
Through consistently high quality and detailed designs, Waterford Crystal has established a reputation throughout the world for its exquisite crystal lighting, vases, decanters and range of gifts. Waterford Crystal designs and patterns are available in a number of collections which include:
- Lismore
- Marquis,
- Fleurology,
- Colleen,
- Clarendon,
- Irish Lace and 6
- Pineapple
The most loved of the Waterford Crystal patterns is the Lismore Collection which for the best part of 60 years has represented the best of what Waterford Crystal has to offer. The word Lismore is derived from Irish, meaning "great ringfort", and the Lismore collection was inspired by the gothic architecture of the 800-year-old Lismore Castle in County Waterford.
