Marie Therese Walker, of MTW Jewellery (featured in our Xmas stocking fillers list last year), based in Kilkenny city, writes:

My workshop was broken into. Above are a few pictures of some of the pieces that were taken. I feel like a little part of my heart was taken with them. If anyone has any information, I would greatly appreciate it. As many of you know each piece is handmade, which involves many hours of time, love and dedication. I am a small business, a [one-] woman show, trying to do the best I can. Thanks.

Anyone?
