STALLHOLDERS:
Dylan Jordan Ceramics
Influenced by his time spent in Japan and Korea, he values the quiet beauty and function of everyday objects.
In Japan, he discovered the tradition of choosing an ochoko, a small sake cup chosen to match the mood or moment, and this concept continues to guide his approach to pottery today.

Maluda
It’s all about experimenting with materials, colour and form to make playful, contemporary pieces for your walls. These days, I am mostly using birch ply, laminate and linen, and as a printmaker, I make a lot of work on paper too. I’m interested in how simple forms can be arranged and reimagined to create endless variations. My work looks for balance through colour and composition, aiming to bring a calm energy to the spaces they live in.
At the Fumbally Christmas market you can expect plenty of colourful prints, my signature linen wall hangings and colourful assemblages. I’m looking forward to seeing you there!

NANDI Knitwear
Hi, I’m María, originally from Chile and now living in Ireland for love! I’m a weaver and a music lover. I work with children in Skerries during the week, teaching them how to knit, and spend the rest of my time creating and listening to music.
I love working with natural fibres and making pieces that feel meaningful to me, always hoping to connect with someone who appreciates each creation.
I first learned to weave in Chile and later refined my technique in San Pedro de Atacama, where local artisans shared their ancestral methods and introduced me to alpaca and vicuña fibres. Then, in Tasmania, Australia, I continued learning from local weavers and spinners who generously shared their knowledge.

Jack Murphy
Jack Murphy and Tom Knight are traditional metalworkers who combine age-old techniques with modern design to create bespoke sculptural and functional metalwork for the home.
Jack, a traditional blacksmith, hand-forges objects such as kitchen knives, cutlery, small sculptures, and household furniture. We let the materials speak for themselves, allowing their natural character to shine through in our finished pieces.
Tom specialises in bronze casting, creating contemporary sculptures and household wares. Both Jack and Tom work from a small studio just outside Cork City, crafting every detail by hand in their forge and foundry.
We offer a range of handmade kitchen knives, utensils, and bespoke interior furnishings, including wall hooks, sculptural candle holders, and traditional fireplace tools.
Our work is inspired by the craftsmanship of earlier generations — handmade wares built to last for years to come.

9 Yard Ceramics
Luke O’Callaghan is a potter based in Louisburgh Co.Mayo on the Wild Atlantic Way. 9 Yard Ceramics began when he built his own studio in the back yard of his house in Dublin. In 2022 he moved with his family to Louisburgh in Co.Mayo to establish a much larger studio where he now works.
I make functional tableware and homeware, items to be used daily. I like to make pieces that are useful but also feel good in your hands to make everyday rituals a bit more special. Pieces are thrown on the wheel, using a stoneware clay then decorated with a coloured slip and finished with a clear glaze. On the stall I will have a range of mugs and cups, bowls and plates, some butter dishes and milk jugs too.

Pearl Reddington Knitwear
I’m Pearl Reddington, a knitwear designer based in Leitrim creating contemporary Irish pieces with a focus on craftsmanship and longevity. Each garment is made in collaboration with skilled makers in Donegal using locally spun wool, then hand-finished in my studio to refine every detail. My collections draw from the quiet beauty of rural Ireland — mossy hills, shifting skies, and the rhythm of slow living — translated into timeless, tactile knitwear designed to be treasured for years. At the market I’ll have a curated selection of babywear, jumpers, cardigans, and accessories from my new collection.

Native Circles Art
I’m Emily and I’m delighted to be bringing Native Circles back to the Fumbally Stables Christmas Market. I’m an artist, mother, and nature lover living in County Wicklow, I created Native Circles to bring us closer to the natural world. Each Native Circles piece illustrates a natural cycle, inviting you to journey and reflect in time with nature. They’re designed to be turned by hand with the changing seasons. So for example, as we move towards the Winter Solstice you can adjust your circle closer to the illustration of the light filling the passage at Newgrange. Think of them as field guides to a simpler life more connected to the wonder of the natural world – turn the circle, align with natural cycles, and reconnect to nature in your home.
All packaging is plastic free and fully recyclable or made from recycled materials. Even the paper we use for circle prints is made from recycled food waste! The wooden stands are made locally by a wicklow carpenter from Beech wood. Our high grade Birch plywood is from FSC sources. And finally we are very proud to partner with our printers: The Factory -Ireland’s leading Eco-Printers and The Copperhouse Fine Art printers who take care of our Archival quality limited edition printing.
It’s always a joy to return to the Fumbally where I used to work, the heart of our community in the city and part of the journey I had towards creating these circles. I look forward to meeting you there!

Cult! Plant-based Che*se
Hi, I’m Anto, founder and co-owner of Cult! Plant-based Che*se
I started Cult! because I’ve always loved showing people that vegan food can be truly delicious. After years of trial and error (a solid decade, give or take!), I finally made a che*se that wowed my omni husband – he told me people needed to try it, and he was right. A neighbourhood shop took a chance on us, and the rest is che*se-tory! (I love bad puns almost as much as I love che*se!)
Today, we make bold, creamy, gut-friendly, multi-award-winning che*ses in small batches here in Northern Ireland. It’s artisan, it’s cultured, and it’s GOOD. For us, it’s all about big flavour, good food, and showing that when you eat plants, there’s nothing to miss out on.

Nubes
Nubes stocks independent clothing brands that make garments (notably shirts) in very small quantities using mostly antique, deadstock and vintage fabrics or fabrics developed by the makers. The shop was started by couple Aoibhin and Oisín Quinn and is currently based in Berlin. They also collaborate directly with artists, makers and designers to create limited editions unique to Nubes, such as the wearable sugar spoon (made in Mexico City) and the 3-collar ‘Advocate’ shirt (made of 60s bedsheets in Germany). The Nubes motto is a clothing shop that doesn’t sell items of mass production; all products are handmade – by humans.
The brand collection includes Conkers, Dterioro, Frank Leder, Tender Co. and Working. Every item has a story and interesting details, making each one special – from the antique ‘chorewear’ shirts handmade in Madrid to the experimental garments crafted in England. It’s a unisex offering and there is a huge emphasis on provenance, people and details – Nubes ensures they know the individuals behind each brand.
This is the first time that many of these makers will be showcased in Ireland and some of the pieces are entirely unique and one-of-a-kind.

Brenda Kearney
I’m Brenda, an artist living on the wild Atlantic Way in the beautiful northwest of Ireland. I make one-off handmade ceramic pieces – some functional, some decorative, and some landing somewhere in between. My work is inspired by arts and craft traditions across place and time, as well as by nature and the seasons, myth and ritual, and visits to museum collections. I like to work with intuition and playfulness.
I work with a variety of stoneware and earthenware clays, and have recently begun exploring wild clays and natural glazes. I’ll have a variety of pieces on sale at the market, including handmade bowls, cups, vases and small decorative pieces. I’m delighted to return to the Fumbally this year – a place that has always encouraged and supported my creativity, and a chance to share work alongside other makers and craftspeople.

Bia Cultures
Dylan is a Wicklow-based potter creating handmade tableware inspired by the Irish landscape.
Influenced by his time spent in Japan and Korea, he values the quiet beauty and function of everyday objects.
In Japan, he discovered the tradition of choosing an ochoko, a small sake cup chosen to match the mood or moment, and this concept continues to guide his approach to pottery today.

The Dublin Honey Bee Project
The Dublin Honey Bee Project recognised the need to support our native Irish honeybees, and the wider urban environment, by keeping bees within Dublin city, far from the chemicals now commonly used in modern farming. To support this, we bring our honey direct to honey fans, post-coded to allow customers to choose a honey that is as local as possible.
We will be selling a range of honeys from around Dublin as well as delicious heather honey from the Dublin Mountains.
All our honey is course-filtered and unheated to retain all the vitamins and enzymes the bees naturally gather.

Bodhi Blends
I’m Aisling and Bodhi Blends is my humble little shop of handcrafted sprays, balms, creams and lotions using plant based potions. Working with high quality, ethically sourced and predominantly organic botanical ingredients, I create products that are designed to support and nourish inside out.
I think we all know that the cosmetic industry can be a bit gross, preying on insecurities and creating needs we didn’t think we had. But for me skincare is all about the application and the enriching ritual we can create around it – taking the time (however brief) to really luxuriate in the process of applying something nourishing to your skin, giving yourself a mini massage, tuning into the smells, breathing them in, breathing deeper, slowing down- a small nervous system regulation snack

Mangan Studio
Mangan Studio is a pottery studio set in a stone grain loft in Co.Wexford by the Blackstairs mountains. Established by Gayle James in 2020 to produce functional pottery for the home alongside teaching people to create their own work.
I’m interested in making pots that promote good food and nourish the people who use them. The process of making so directly with my hands connects me back to myself, it’s why I teach people how to make their own pots, to bring community into the making process and share the empowering tools it offers. It comes down to building and contributing to a community of people who take care of each other and themselves.

The book stick system allows users to replace used pages easily – hopefully with waste paper. We hope this can be a small step to seeing reusability and repairability introduced to many more everyday items.

Baressential | Art of Soap
I am a painter with a keen interest in botany. I founded Baressential
in 2014 with the belief that bringing art into all that we do and
working in harmony with nature is a potent source of healing for us,
the planet and the future.
I am fascinated in and in awe of the dynamic power of plants to heal,
colour, and create scent.
Using the finest sustainably sourced natural ingredients I create
little pieces of soap art. Sumptuous plant butters and oils to soothe
and nourish, herbs, spices and mineral pigments to colour and pure
essential oils to perfume.
Each unique piece of Baressential soap is blended, poured, bevelled,
polished and packed by hand.
I will have my complete range of soaps, mini bar gift boxes, body oils
and sea salt soaks. You can pick and choose based on colour or scent
to create heavenly scented gift combination sets to suit all pockets
and tastes.
