In our online store you will find a carefully curated collection of our favourite things and a few of our best sellers too. It's impossible for us to offer everything we do online as most of our products are limited or handcrafted.
If you want to spoil yourself with the full collection then come and visit us in our cosy, welcoming shop with the pieces that you find hugely from Mayo and Ireland, a few vintage things as well as a small collection of Fair Trade handmade goods for parts of the world I have travelled to. And it would not be complete without the Autentíco paint range that provides the bright colour on the front of the shop and on all the wonderful furniture inside. We love to meet new people for a friendly chat!
My story wouldn't be complete without my wonderful husband and out 3 gorgeous children. Tom is a Essex boy who was lulled to Mayo by the golfing and fishing. He started as the muscles of the business, painting, laying floors and knocking out old counters and it's by no means finished. However, since opening he is getting more and more crafty and has a particular flare for pottery. Our daughter, Francesca is already learning how to serve behind the counter and I'm sure in time the twins will as well.
Vision - Responsible Retail where Success is measured by happiness.
Mission - To make shopping ethically accessible without compromising on design.
