Original Kerry Crafts is one of the 2 "Artist Coop" gift shops that Gayle and I visited during our recent stay in Dingle. This tidy little shop is right on the corner of Green and Strand.
The very attractive artistic offerings were well curated and of various media and price points. Note that when I visit coops like this, I assume that the price of a piece is a fair reflection of that persons artistic skill and effort. My purchase of "The Dingle Moon" was a case in point, when I first blanched at the price, but quickly came to my senses. And what an attractive textile-based piece it is!
The resident artist minding the shop was friendly, very knowledgeable about the inventory, and local custom insightful. If you want an quality alternative to the plethora of souvenir tchotchkes that you'll find in Dingle, this is one place to visit. read more
