Killarney, County Kerry, Ireland
This family-run shop in Killarney designs and sources Celtic jewellery, including Claddagh rings and birthstone pieces, largely from local Irish artisans. Most stock is handcrafted in Killarney itself rather than bought in as ready-made inventory from a wholesaler.
Best for Claddagh rings and handcrafted Celtic jewellery
Killarney Celtic Jewelry is a family run shop at 24 Main Street in Killarney, County Kerry, in the south of Ireland. The premises have housed a jeweller for over 120 years. The shop is now run by Rory Giles, a Kerryman with over 25 years in the trade in Killarney and on the Aran Islands. The shop sources and designs traditional Celtic jewellery from mostly local artists. All of the jewellery is made in Ireland. Claddagh rings and Celtic knot pieces come in sterling silver and gold, with birthstone versions of the Claddagh in both rings and earrings. Connemara marble, a stone found only in Ireland, is set in silver for pendants that are hand crafted in Killarney itself. Pewter barrettes and bronze pieces round out the cases. Alongside the traditional work sits the Ring of Kerry collection, a modern line created for the shop by local craftsman Paul Kelly. Its pendant is worked in sterling silver with a small band of 18ct gold. A diamond and an emerald are both set in 18ct gold. The designs take their inspiration from local landscapes and legends, and the shop describes each purchase as a piece of Killarney tradition carried home.

Kenmare Place, Killarney, County Kerry, Ireland
Lir Cafe hand-shapes chocolates — including Baileys truffles and Guinness caramels — from its Kenmare Place shop in central Killarney. The counter doubles as an espresso bar, open daily from 7am to 6pm.
Best for Hand-shaped chocolates in Irish flavors — Baileys truffles, Guinness caramels — poured alongside espresso
On Kenmare Place in the centre of Killarney, Lir Cafe runs its chocolate counter and coffee bar as one operation rather than two separate businesses. Every piece is hand-shaped rather than moulded from a single cast, which the shop states means "no two are alike" — a detail that shows in the texture of its truffles and caramels rather than in any marketing claim alone. The lineup leans into Irish flavor references: Baileys Truffles and Guinness-flavored caramels sit among the standard truffle and caramel cases, tying the shop's confectionery directly to the county it's in rather than a generic import. Coffee runs alongside the chocolate rather than as an afterthought — Lir positions itself as a stop for coffee drinkers as much as for anyone buying a box of sweets, open seven days a week from 7am to 6pm. For a town built on tourist footfall through Killarney National Park, that combination of an early opening time and a dessert counter that also pulls espresso gives Lir a dual identity: a place locals can get a working coffee before opening hours turn touristy, and a place visitors can pick up a distinctly Irish box of chocolates rather than a generic souvenir tin.
