What you’ll find

What Moth to a Flame is known for

Larry Kinsella, a founding member of the Made in Kilkenny craftspeople's collective, has hand-poured candles at this riverside studio in Bennettsbridge since 1999, near the Nicholas Mosse pottery. The workshop produces pillar and scented candles alongside studio-only pieces like glow-globes and tortured-wax sculptures that visitors can watch being made.
