Gilmartins Craft Shop - Irish Gifts and Crafts

Established in the 1920s as a means to bring employment to the town of Newbridge in Country Kildare, the company started out making cutlery. Since then, the Newbridge brand has become synonymous with style and quality the world over.

For 70 years, Newbridge Silverware has been designing and producing quality giftware and tableware. The evolution of the Newbridge Silverware brand from that which was associated with cutlery to a premier name in the design and manufacture of quality jewellery and lifestyle products is indeed remarkable and today the brand is widely regarded as Ireland’s premier giftware brand.

At the heart of the brand’s success have been the Newbridge Silverware showrooms, located at the company’s headquarters in Newbridge, Co. Kildare.

Just as Newbridge Silverware has been committed to developing and innovating in design and product ranges, they have been equally committed to providing the best in retail when it comes to their showrooms.

The Showrooms at Newbridge Silverware Silverware Visitor Centre owe their creation to the pioneering spirit of the late Mona Doyle, the mother of the current CEO Mr. William Doyle.

Renovated and extended to include a Christmas room, Home Emporium, Jewellery Zone and interior idea focal points, the Newbridge Silverware showrooms provide the most dynamic shopping experience, where customers can enjoy a Mecca of style ideas for their home and personal style.

On offer and display is the complete and extensive Newbridge Silverware product range including cutlery, glassware, giftware, kitchenware, earthenware, homeware and jewellery. In addition, luxury collections of jewellery, gift and home products are stocked exclusively in the Newbridge based showrooms, and cannot be found anywhere else in Ireland.

Additional benefits are offered to shoppers at the Newbridge Silverware showrooms, ample car parking facilities, comfortable seating areas, style ideas which are regularly updated by top interior stylists, a bridal registry service, and corporate gift services. World wide shipping and Vat Back Scheme is in operation.

As well as being a contemporary shoppers paradise, the Newbridge Silverware showrooms are home to the Newbridge Silverware factory where for 70 years craft workers have been producing the famous cutlery and jewellery. The history of this remarkable company is on full display throughout the showrooms in the form of photographs, memorabilia, media cuttings and archives making it a real place of local interest.

The Newbridge Silverware showrooms are an enjoyable, easy place to shop and in which the personal level of service, headed by Majella O’Sullivan, is second to none. Teamed with the vast selection of products, the history, and the modern comfortable style of the showrooms, a trip to the Newbridge Silverware showrooms is highly recommended!
