About Killarney Haberdashery Cabinets:
The name "Killarney" has a historical association with the term "Killarney Ware" - a distinct style of mid 19th-century Irish woodenware originating from Killarney and the Gap of Dunloe in County Kerry.
By the early 20th century, traditional Killarney ware production had largely ceased, though some artisans continued to create pieces inspired by the original designs, these were often limited in number and lacked the distinctive quality of earlier works.
While there is no clear connection between this specific style and period, it continues the name and retains historical interest as a staple in traditional sewing and haberdashery shops, used to neatly organise threads, buttons, and fabric accessories.
