Our Story: Love, Loyalty, and Friendship in Design

Claddagh Abode founders in their workshop, surrounded by handcrafted furniture pieces and design sketches.

Welcome to Claddagh Abode, where the timeless spirit of the Irish Claddagh ring – love, loyalty, and friendship – is woven into the very fabric of home design. Founded by Aoife and Liam O'Connell, our journey began with a shared passion for authentic craftsmanship and a desire to create spaces that truly resonate with the lives lived within them.

From our humble beginnings, Claddagh Abode has grown into a beacon for bespoke furniture and thoughtful interior styling in Dublin. We believe that a home should not only be beautiful and functional but also tell a story – your story. Our mission is to partner with you, translating your unique vision into reality, crafting environments where memories are made and cherished.

Our commitment extends beyond aesthetics. We are deeply rooted in the tradition of Irish craftsmanship, sourcing premium, sustainable materials whenever possible. Each piece is designed and curated with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring quality that stands the test of time. We blend heritage with contemporary elegance, offering you not just furniture, but heirlooms for tomorrow.
