Since starting CROÍ MEALA last December, I’ve been really proud to have received several custom orders for many meaningful gifts including anniversary and engagement rings! It’s been one of my favourite things to bring your ideas to life and has increasingly become a big part of the business !

With this in mind I’ve created my signature design service, Treasure Island 🏝️. Derived from my childhood nickname this will be the section on my website where unique handcrafted designs find their home 🏡

My calendar is fully booked for now but feel free to reach out via my email to discuss and make future bookings - hello@croimeala.com :)

Working on a new bespoke page on my website to showcase my favourite projects !

Bookings via hello@croimeala.com

Excited to be doing my first Dublin pop-up! I’ll be down at the Linen Yard this Saturday 16th with @cuff.__ ! I’ll be selling some jewels and extra designs that are not online - come down and say hi 👋 🌸

Research images from my #treisht26 project for the Year of the Manx Language ! Old film images from the Viking re-enactment in Peel 🗡️

A custom engagement ring from earlier in the year for one of my favourite pairs ❤️‍🔥 We spent a lot of time looking for a special stone and I think this is one of the most unusual and gorgeous diamonds I’ve worked with, rare red inclusions creating little galaxies inside the stone !

Earlier this week I launched a project I’ve created as part of Culture Vannin’s Treisht26 celebrations for Blein ny Gaelgey, the Year of the Manx Language. Excited to say they’re now available on my website in collaboration with Manx Heritage as well as in the Manx Museum!

The Isle of Man has an incredibly rich archeological history which I loved delving into for this project. These hand-struck silver coins were born from the burial hoards excavated across the Isle of Man, made using the original Viking technique — engraved steel dies hammered by hand onto fine silver blanks — recreating the imperfections of historical coinage. I researched the designs from burial coins excavated across the Island; tracing the font directly from inscriptions on unearthed coins, and the drawings from three recurring symbols found across the buried treasures — the longship, the cross used to quarter coins for smaller payments, and three dots believed to represent an early interpretation of the Three Legs of Man. Into these ancient forms, I have woven chosen sayings of the Manx language that I love — our island’s slogan Traa Dy Liooar (time enough — don’t worry, you’ve got time), My Ghraih (my love) and My Veen (my darling).

The project takes its name from both those buried Viking hoards and from the Manx language itself — a language that came so close to being lost, and is now being reclaimed.

30% of every online sale through my website will be passed directly to Manx Heritage, supporting the care of the Island’s historic sites, countryside, and cultural heritage.

I’m so proud to be part of supporting my little island’s culture and language and the amazing work Manx Heritage do. Thank you to @culturevannin for the #Treisht26 grant and to @philippocowin at Island Engraving for making the dies that made this possible. Treisht means hope in Manx, which is what this project is all about. Online link below!

Can’t wait to be back in the beautiful creative community of @gatheredhandslondon this summer !!

Catch us at Clapton again on the 13&14th June !

BURIED WORDS / Focklyn Oanluckit

Excited to finally release my #Treisht26 project for the Year of the Manx Language ! A series of hand-struck coins inspired by Celtic and Viking coinage unearthed in Manx burial sites. Each coin was made by recreating the original Viking technique of hand-striking, recreating the imperfections of historical coinage.

I researched the designs from burial coins excavated across the Island; tracing the font directly from inscriptions on unearthed coins, and the drawings from three recurring symbols found across the buried treasures — the longship, the cross used to quarter coins for smaller payments, and three dots believed to represent an early interpretation of the Three Legs of Man.

Into these ancient forms, I have woven chosen words of the Manx language — our islands slogan Traa Dy Liooar (time enough), My Ghraih (my love) and My Veen (my darling).

The project takes its name, Buried Words, from both the buried hoards that inspired it and the Manx language itself — once nearly lost, now being reclaimed. A project to transform an ancient craft process and bringing the Manx language into people’s hands.

This project will be shown in the Manx Museum exhibition opening tomorrow night and available to buy as necklaces exclusively in the gift shop! Thank you to @culturevannin for the Treisht26 grant to bring this project to life and to @philippocowin at Island Engraving for making the dies that made this possible ! Gura mie ayd 🇮🇲

Excited to announce that I’ve been selected to take part in the Biodiversity Week Festival at Glenveagh National Park in Ireland ! I’ll be demonstrating wax carving techniques inspired by irelands ancient woodlands.

Glenveagh is only one hour from my family home and I’ve walked its paths many times so it’s incredible to get to be a part of this!

Thank you @glenveaghofficial
