Irish Trees Greeting Cards

A beautifully presented set of square greeting cards based on Ireland's native trees. 

Inspired by her surrounding West Cork landscape and countryside, designer/illustrator Sonia Caldwell produces beautifully detailed watercolours, which she then reproduces to create such stationary items such as cards and calendars. Each pack contains 6 blank greeting cards depicting the following native Irish trees:

Rowan, Hazel, Elder, Blackthorn, Oak and Hawthorn.

Dimensions: Each card measures 13 x 13 cm, and are paired with beautiful quality envelopes.

Kilcoe Studios, based in Skibbereen, West Cork, was founded in 2012 by Sonia Caldwell and Eamon Quinn, as a means to fund other artistic practices.  Each card and calendar is the watercolour paintings of Sonia, as she explores the wildlife around her and the abundance of gardens and knowledge in the area.

Sonia primarily works with stone to create hand-chiseled bowls and vessels but over time the depth of our plant world became more and more fascinating to her. Now Kilcoe Studios depicts the extensive range of native Irish plants and trees and not only shares the beautiful watercolour images in the products but also shares wonderful facts and information from our heritage and folklore. 

All packaging is recyclable and proudly plastic free. All card and paper that the cards and calendar are printed on are made from FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified paper. Everything is printed locally by a family print business based in Cork City - City Print.
