Highlights
Why Book a Crystal Workshop Tour? Our company offers a unique, hands-on experience where travelers can witness the art of handcrafted crystal in its purest form. Founded by master craftsman Sean Daly, our workshop is one of the last of its kind in Ireland, producing crystal entirely by hand. Each piece is signed and dated by Sean, ensuring authenticity. Our designs are inspired by the stunning West Kerry landscape, blending natural beauty with centuries-old craftsmanship. We offer small, personal tours for up to 30 people, where visitors can watch skilled artisans, including Sean himself, at work. Located just outside Dingle town, our workshop is exclusive—our crystal is only available here or at our Dingle store. We are also dog-friendly, with our two lovable factory dogs adding warmth to your visit. Tours are affordable and last about an hour, including time to explore our shop.

About Dingle
Dingle is a brightly painted harbour town on the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry, with music pubs, Irish-speaking villages and wild Atlantic scenery.
Dingle, An Daingean in Irish, is a small fishing harbour on the Dingle Peninsula in the south-west of Ireland, in a district where Irish is still spoken in daily life. Its streets of painted shopfronts run up from the harbour, and in the evenings the pubs fill with traditional music sessions. Fishing boats still unload at the pier, and seafood is the town's trade.
