Glass Act

The Irish Design shop has just commissioned the Irish Handmade Glass Company, set up by former Waterford Crystal workers, to create a collection of contemporary crystal. These tea light holders, €28, come in fluoro yellow or orange and can also be used as wine tumblers. They are available in the shops on Bow Lane East and at the RHA at 15, Ely Place, both in Dublin 2. Tel: 01-475 2222, irishdesignshop.com.
