We are an Irish husband and wife team who set up Inspire Stone in January 2013. We are based in Firhouse and run our craft business from our dining room table…Suzanne being the inspire part and Joe the stone part. Suzanne for her love of uplifting inspirational writers, quotes, etc. and Joe because he is 6th generation stone mason.

We have a range of perfect stocking fillers and gifts at our website [link below]…Thank you
Irish Made Stocking Fillers to broadsheet@broadsheet.ie marked ‘Irish Made Stocking Fillers’. No fee just a quick hug.

On the other hand, perfect passive aggressive gift for that OCD-ish cousin that you don’t really like
Really like the stone though!
Nice gift idea.
In keeping with the pedantic duo above, I’d like the Irish first, English underneath.
first thing I spotted, too. consistency is everything, lads!
So now we know the ONE person who was able to make use of having to learn this on the Irish leaving-cert syllabus!
Very nice.
Although I would tidy up the lettering alot. The Ogham works really well and would be nicely balanced by a linear typeface – think angular!
