The Irish Philadelphia Virtual Shopping Mall

Published: Mar 1, 2008

Looking for an Aran sweater, a piece of Waterford, some Irish potatoes (the sugary, cinnamon variety), or just a sticker for your bumper that proudly proclaims you came from County Offaly? Here's a list of local Irish shops where you can get all of those things and more. You'll find stores in the six-county Philly region, New Jersey, and Delaware, and even some Web-based sites that make shopping (and overspending) as easy as a mouseclick. If you have a favorite Celtic-flavored shop--either bricks-and-mortar or in cyberspace--please let us know and we’ll add it to the list.

www.celticclothing.com While Charlie Lords of Chadds Ford, PA, has a nice line of Celtic clothing, he also sells beautiful jewelry. In the interest of full disclosure, we're one of Charlie's affiliates and we get a cut of whatever you buy when you click through his ad on our pages. Any money we make gets plowed back into the site, which is now, for us, still an expensive hobby. So, we encourage you to buy early and buy often.

The Philadelphia Irish Shop
www.phillyirishshop.com

www.woodenpenworks.com The handmade pens in this web shop are gorgeous and feature a Claddagh, coats of arms, or a Celtic cross. The Celtic designs run from $55 to $65. The company has 11,000 coats of arms (I found mine!) which are engraved in olive wood imported from Israel.

Irish Landscapes
Looking for a nice photo of that wonderful village you visited last summer? Irish landscape photography is pretty expensive. We found a couple of sites where you can get them at reasonable prices.

www.celticscenes.com is a site run by Lisa Carbrey of New Jersey. Her prints run anywhere from $15 to more than $150, depending on framing. She also offers photobooks; contact her through her site if you're interested in a particular village. Her work is also available at Celtic Shores, an Irish shop in Northe Wildwood, NJ.

http://kliffklegg.imagekind.com/ is a site set up by one of our flickr.com friends, Brian J. Kelly, an art teacher and talented painter and photographer from Connemara in Galway. His photograph of clouds over Lough Nafooey will steal your heart away. He also has some lovely prints of Connemara ponies for the horse lover on your list. Prints start at less than $10; framing and matting are extra.

Go on the web and Google "leprechaun shoes." Lots of online novelty shops sell them.

I don't know about any of our local shops, which would, of course, be my preference.

Celtic Christmas shopping

Submitted by Lisa Carbrey (not verified) on Mon, 12/10/2007 - 10:36am.

Denise, thank you very much for the mention of my site in the list for Celtic Christmas shopping. It's a new venture for me, in it's first year and great to have the word get out. I wanted to pass on a shop in my area (the shore) that my photos are in. Celtic Shores, run by Kathleen Killen is on New Jersey Ave in North Wildwood. Phone# is 609-729-1966. She recently had a fire in her prior location but is now open in the old Shamrock Realty location. I don't have the new address unfortunately. I was there Saturday dropping off some prints, magnets and notecards and got a good looks. She has some lovely items and the new store is very nice.
