Aengus Munnelly: Connemara Celtic Crystal Ltd
Celtic Crystal is a family run business formed in 1972 in Moycullen Co. Galway. The aim of the business was to bring a new and unique design concept to Irish crystal glass manufacturing and the handcrafting of traditional Irish design on ornate Irish crystal. Over forty years on, talented Irish craftspeople continue the tradition of handcutting using the original stone wheel methods. The range of items include giftware, stemware and limited or one of a kind pieces in clear and colour cased crystal. A new range of crystal jewellery has recently been added to the range. There is a visitor centre which is open to visitors all year round.
