Your Definitive Irish Gift Guide for Winter Birthdays

Posted by ShamrockCraic on 11th Feb 2019

Irish gifts make for perfect birthday presents all year round. This winter, we’ve compiled some of our favorite options for men, women, and children. If you want to be seasonal, there’s no better time to stock up on your winter presents.

FOR MEN

A Traditional Irish Flat Cap

Guinness Patchwork Cap

The definition of old school, this tartan Guinness flat cap is a salute to both Irish fashion and your great taste in beer! Please note that since this is a patchwork cap, the cloth pattern may vary from this image, since every patchwork cap is unique. The embroidered Guinness logo and emblem on the brim provide the finishing touch of authenticity to this charming cap.

This cap will go great with a black suede or leather jacket. It will also make a memorable gift for a dear friend and fan of Guinness!

A Classic Aran Sweater

Mens Merino Wool Aran Sweater

This warm crewneck sweater from Carraig Donn is the perfect antidote to the cold.

Merino wool has many amazing features, but its main benefit is that it's one of the few types of wool that manages to be super-strong and durable, yet also luxuriously soft without the scratchiness that usually accompanies wool clothing. In sum, it's comfortably wearable.

This handsome fisherman sweater knit in iconic Aran cable patterns delivers that very rich quality and poshness. This cozy garment will surely be on heavy rotation in your closet all winter!

FOR WOMEN

Some Genuine Irish Porcelain

Set of Four Mini Bud Vases from Belleek China

This lovely porcelain set of four mini vases from Belleek Pottery is a beautiful showcase of Irish pride and wonderful design. Known as Queen Victoria's favorite china company, Belleek was founded in 1849 in County Fermanagh, and it has been creating exquisite pieces of china pottery ever since. This mini vase set includes a Mini Connemara Vase, Mini Colleen Vase, Mini Footed Vase, and a Mini Square Vase.

All of the vases feature ornate embossed patterns and hand-painted shamrock flowers, with each vase crafted in its own distinct shape that includes a unique brim pattern finish.

This vase set makes a fantastic gift for a housewarming party, birthday, or holiday.

A Handknit Scarf

Hand-Knit Irish Scarf from Aran Crafts

How do we love this warm, woolly scarf? Let us count the ways. Knit with gorgeous Aran diamond and plait stitches that are accented with a delicate tassel trim, the scarf's incredibly soft Irish Merino wool is high-quality and extremely durable. This scarf's creamy white color will also look good on everyone. Even for those hazy at math at best, that's at least five wonderful things, right? We promise you'll find even more things to love when you put on this beautiful scarf!

FOR CHILDREN

A Hat Fit for a Knight

Dragon Tail Kids Fun Hat with Viking Horns

Kids love this adorable and silly hat from Lansdowne. The soft, sturdy hat playfully combines Viking horns with a spiked dragon tail in a colorful green, yellow, and white pattern. With this hat, kids can put smiles on the faces of everyone they see!

Comfy Booties

Hand Knit Baby Booties by Carraig Donn

Keep your baby's tiny toes snug and cozy in these wonderful hand-knit baby booties! This pretty pair of booties was crafted in Ireland from 100% Merino wool, a material that's incredibly warm and soft.

The natural white color is so ethereal, and the little bows on top are an undeniably adorable touch. These booties will also make a beautiful gift with a baby blanket and hat!
