Waterford & Connemara: World premiere On QVC

by on ‎09-01-2015 09:00 AM

The Irish words  ' A Chara ‘ means ' My Friend' , and over the years I have formed many great friendships with the team at QVC and my fellow Irish Vendors.

 

Inspired by my dear friend Jane Treacy, she came up with the idea of working together with another Irish producer, and with the help of the buying team, the moment is about to arrive.

 

Waterford Crystal and Connemara Marble.  Two of Irelands Iconic brands have come together to bring to you, the QVC viewer , the FIRST EVER piece combining hand crafted Crystal from the Waterford factory and a base of 900 million year old Connemara Marble.

This project has been two years in the making and symbolizes our friendship between the craftsmen who bring these unique items to QVC, and the friendships that we have formed together across the Atlantic over the years.

 

I wanted to share this exciting news with you, so you can be ' first up and best dressed’, and grab the very first piece of the collection that you can build!!!

 

The item is H303988 , Waterford Crystal  and Connemara Marble hurricane lamp in the Ferndale pattern ,  and I am looking forward to launching this item with my good friend Philip O Keeffe from Waterford on the 26th Annual Rose Of Tralee celebration on September 3rd.
