Stable of Ireland Collaboration
‘Stable of Ireland’ was founded by Sonia Reynolds and Francie Duff in 2015. Their vision was to create a brand that celebrates Irish craftsmanship and brings it to a global audience. ]They have collaborated with various designers and artists to create unique collections that blend traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design. The brand offers a range of products, including scarves, crios belts, throws and other accessories. Each item is meticulously crafted using traditional methods, ensuring the highest quality and a unique touch. They emphasise traditional handweaving techniques, which have been passed down through generations of Irish weavers.
In 2018, Francie and Sonia visited Liz Christy’s Studios in the heart of County Monaghan, and they have been collaborating since. They selected some Crios Belt designs and Liz has continued to add to these colourways for their beautiful shop in Westbury Mall, Dublin, which has done so much to bring the wonderful story of the Crios back into consciousness.
On that first visit, they also chose a hand-woven lace wrap for their store. Green cashwool and linen, woven with the fine cream and coral warp, this design has become a key piece for Stable of Ireland, along with a selection of other colourways of the design. Most recently, a fabulously vibrant orange has been added to the mix along with a navy.. Together they have worked with the Crios design and built a collection of Luxury scarves, wraps and throws inspired by this most traditional of Irish heritage products, which Stable of Ireland have brought to an international audience. Both Sonia and Francie’s passion for Irish Textiles shines through in their breathtaking photography and videos. Incidentally, these two lovely women met on the Cleo photoshoot when they modelled the suits made from my Swedish lace tweed fabric.
