Brilliant Independent Irish – Based Art, Design & Interiors Shops
I’m a lover of art, design and all things ‘interiors‘, and so, to show my support for independent Irish based shops I have shopped from, plan to shop from, and those I admire – I put together this ‘Independent Irish Art, Design & Interiors Shops Directory‘.
Many of the stores listed exclusively sell their own works or sell those by Artists and Designers based in Ireland. Some can be visited in person, all can be shopped from, or contacted online. The other independent Irish based businesses curate their stores with art and design led pieces they’ve sourced internationally and sell exclusively online. They all however have one thing in common and that is; they are based in Ireland and are independent.

Independent Irish – Based Art, Design & Interiors Shops Directory
This directory is for you to utilise should you wish to shop for a special person or for yourself, whether it be for a birthday celebration, Christmas present, or a gift for no reason at all.
Of course if you feel a shop you love should be added to this Independent Irish Art, Design and Interiors Directory, please let me know – you can use the comment section below to keep me up to date.
Shop local, support the arts, support independent Irish businesses, love design and enjoy!
This listing is alphabetical, and there are currently 50 Independent Irish businesses listed.
