Description:
Rarely more than a generation from their rural roots, the Irish have maintained their country style in an unbroken tradition, as relevant today as it was a century ago. Rooted in the economies of 19th century poverty, Irish country style has evolved into a free-flowing fusion of hand-crafted interiors and traditional exteriors, confidently colorful and exuberantly Irish. Their folk art and vernacular tradition were saved from oblivion by the 19th century Arts and Crafts Movement and rejuvenated by the "heritage" movement of the 20th century.
