LOCATION LOCATION........THE SAILORS HOME
( hot off the press this week)


Who better to photograph your product than your own team and #PeopleofLimerick. 
We teamed up with our in-house creative consultant and photographer Deirdre Power and scouted for a location to create our 2107 Wholesale catalogue here in #limerick 

We styled our scarfs at one of the Limerick City's architectural gems, The Sailors Home. Originally built as a refuge for the many sailors who came to the city during the late 1880’s. But due to many disputes over the rights to the space, the building, sadly never accommodated any sailors. Described as ‘handsome’, when completed in 1856,  it was later rented to the Limerick City Militia and eventually became a Gárda Barracks, which closed in the 1980’s. 
In the past few years it has seen a new reawakening as an alternative space for artists exhibitions and projects. Long may it survive!
Many thanks to the guys at Shannon Foynes Company at Limerick Docks.
