St. Brigid's Cross
Saille Baskets

St. Brigid, also known as “Mary of the Gael”, is an abbess and patroness of Ireland. She is furthermore the founder of the first Irish monastery in County Kildare, Ireland. Born in Dundalk in 450 AD, St. Brigid is accredited with first creating the unique cross which bears her name. This cross is normally hand-made from rushes or straw, however, our ones are made from willow, so they will last a lifetime.
Materials and Care:
Each cross measures approx 24cm in diameter. As they are hand-made from home-grown willow and truly unique, the size will differ and the colour will change as it ages.
