Irish Silver Museum
Review
“The roses that of old time were woven by ladies in their hair, the dew-cold lilies ladies bore, through many a sacred corridor.”
Step inside the illustrious, shimmering world of Irish Silver, with 1000 years of history stamped within each superb piece of silver, creating an extraordinary story that involves; ‘Power, Politics and Piety’. Situated in The Deanery, Cathedral Square, in the heart of Waterford City, County Waterford, the Irish Silver Museum is part of the Waterford Treasures and the Viking Triangle. Visitors can take a special journey, through one of the largest collections of Irish Silver, and learn all about Irish history through these exquisitely beautiful objects, which tell a story that stretches from the Vikings, to the Victorians, and onwards. The Irish Museum celebrates the stunning Silversmiths of the 1700s, and that includes Ireland’s rare female Silversmiths. Silver is one of the seven precious metals of antiquity, and continues to enchant and inspire people, and a visit to this enchanting museum will create a lifetime of precious memories.
