Our Top 10 Irish Gifts of Love
Celebrate those we love
Love Your Life
Time to celebrate those we love — whether you’re shopping for your partner, girlfriend, boyfriend or best friend, you’ll find something unique and interesting on Baileo.
And, if the person you’re shopping for has Irish roots, then our gifts will have special meaning. From our beautiful Celtic jewelry to our stylish homeware there’ll be something for everyone…brought to you from Ireland with love.
In no particular order, here are our Top 10 Gifts of Love.
1. Love tradition
The ultimate Celtic love symbol is the Claddagh ring but but what do you buy for the love of your life who already has one.?
This pendant is the perfect match for the ring, it has the same powerful symbolism, “I give you my heart and crown it with my love”. Beautifully crafted by Irish hands and an Irish tradition through the ages
2. Love to entertain
Some people love to dress their table for special occasions. Our beautiful handmade linens from Circle Vivendi will bring style and sophistication to their table. The Celtic range carries a delicate pattern inspired by The Round Tower of Clondalkin and in crisp white with hues of blue and green. The intricate designs are often found on Irish dancing costumes but look just as stunning on a table runner.
3. Love to stand out
How about some wearable art? Check out these handcrafted felt collars by Jayne Gillan of County Kerry. The colors and designs are stunning, reflecting the blues, greens and heathers of the Irish coastline and mountains. The collars are versatile and can be worn in different ways to dress up an outfit or bring a touch of chic to a simple jacket or sweater.

4. Love candles
Who doesn’t love a scented candle? Anyone who has been to Ireland will remember the smell of soft rain, the countryside, the Atlantic mist, and the fireside. Our hand-poured candles capture these scents of Ireland in a beautiful package. The collection includes a candle called Grá Máthair — Irish for “A Mother’s Love’.
5. Love of your life
Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a Celtic knot. Our bespoke Baileo Celtic knot, by Irish Designer Miriam Wade, is a contemporary take on a traditional knot and is evocative of love, connection and family.
This Celtic pendant is available in two sizes (regular and petite) along with stud or drop earrings. You’ll find these and more in our Jewelry collection.
6. Love that man
Declan Killen is an award-winning Irish goldsmith and jeweler. His handcrafted creations have been commissioned by fans around the globe. A set of these Newgrange cufflinks was presented to President Obama during his official visit to Ireland in 2011. The design is based on the entrance stone to Newgrange, the most well-known Irish passage tomb which dates back to 3,200 BC.
7. Love of home
If you’re shopping for someone who loves beautifully simple design, you can’t go wrong with a stylish piece of Irish pottery. These contemporary ceramic designs by Diem Pottery and others reflect the colorful hues of the Irish landscape. Check out the collection of vases, carafes, beakers, condiment sets and clocks.
8. Love to be warm
Our collection of Irish scarves will keep them feeling warm, cozy and stylish this winter. The scarves are made in Ireland’s finest woollen mills and are a great gift for women and men. Have a look at the Foxford Herringbone scarves made in County Mayo, or the Aran Mills Crios Irish scarf in Gray or Green with its distinctive stripes at each end.
9. Love to treasure
Inspired by the iconic Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland, this bracelet makes a real statement. A rare piece of Irish rose gold from County Tyrone is surrounded by sterling silver links shaped like the unusual stones of the Causeway. Pair with the matching pendant for a truly unique and special gift set.
10. Love together
Le Chéile (which means ‘Together’ in Irish) is a beautiful, contemporary collection from jewelry designer Miriam Wade. Made of sterling silver interlinked triangles and squares, each piece signifies connection and togetherness. A lovely way to celebrate the special relationships in our lives.
