Irish Christmas Gifts 2026: My Top 10 Gift Sets from Ireland
Written by Lulu O'Sullivan

Hi everyone. I hope I find you all well this week. Christmas is my favorite time of year at The Irish Store. Every year, our Dublin team packs parcel after parcel bound for homes across America, Canada and beyond. Each one carries a little piece of Ireland to someone who loves it.
This year, we've done the Christmas shopping for you! I'm so excited to introduce our brand-new range of Irish Christmas gift sets. Each one pairs pieces that belong together, made by Irish makers I'm proud to work with. And every set costs less than buying the pieces separately.
Here are my top ten, with a little about why I love each one.
What are the best Irish Christmas gifts?

The best Irish Christmas gifts are pieces made in Ireland that carry real meaning: an Aran sweater knit with stitches for luck, Belleek china from County Fermanagh, or sterling silver Celtic jewelry hallmarked at Dublin Castle.
My top 10 Irish Christmas gift sets for 2026
1. The Ultimate Irish Gift for Her-Available Here
If you want to give her the full Irish look in one box, this is it. At its heart is our Women's Fisherman Heritage Sweater, made in Ireland with the honeycomb stitch that fishing families believed brought good fortune.
We've paired it with a soft alpaca and merino Islander scarf woven in County Kerry, and a sterling silver Trinity knot pendant hallmarked at Dublin Castle. Warm, elegant and unmistakably Irish.
2. Christmas Morning in Ireland Gift Set-Available Here
This is the set I'd want under my own tree, and it's our biggest saving of the season. Matching men's and women's Fisherman Heritage Sweaters, both pure wool and made in Ireland, plus a pair of cream Belleek Celtic Mugs.
Picture it: Christmas morning, two Aran sweaters, and the first cup of tea by the tree. A lovely gift for any couple.
3. The Ultimate Irish Gift for Him-Available Here
Our customers built this one for us. It brings together three of our all-time favorites. Our bestselling Men's Signature Half Zip Sweater is 100% merino, knit in Ireland with trellis, cable and Tree of Life stitches and finished with a leather zip pull.
Add a Classic Irish Tweed Driving Cap and an alpaca-blend Islander scarf from Mucros Weavers in Kerry, and he's set for the whole winter.
4. Cozy Irish Christmas for Two Gift Set-Available Here
One throw, two mugs, and nowhere to be. Our festive red Aran Christmas Throw is 100% merino, made in Ireland with a honeycomb stitch and snowflake trim.
It comes with a pair of Belleek Celtic Mugs from County Fermanagh. I love this one for newlyweds, couples, or anyone hosting this Christmas.
5. A Very Aran Christmas Gift Set-Available Here
Aran for the sofa, and Aran for the tree. This set pairs our red merino Aran Christmas Throw with Belleek's porcelain Aran Sweater Ornament, which arrives gift-boxed.
It's a playful nod to Ireland's most famous knit, and an ornament you'll hang every year.
6. The Complete Claddagh Gift Set-Available Here
The Claddagh is Ireland's symbol of love, loyalty and friendship, and this set lets her wear it and know its story. You get a sterling silver Claddagh pendant and matching earrings, made in Ireland and hallmarked at Dublin Castle.
Alongside them is The Story of the Claddagh Ring, a pocket-sized hardcover by Sean Mc Mahon about the Galway fishing village where it all began. It's also our most affordable set.
7. The Ultimate Irish Christmas Gift Set-Available Here
If you're buying for the whole family, start here. Our red merino Aran Christmas Throw is paired with Belleek's porcelain Christmas Sheep Ornament, complete with a little Santa hat and crafted in County Fermanagh.
Cozy comfort for the sofa, and a keepsake that will make everyone smile.
8. The Cozy Celtic Gift Set-Available Here
Cozy knit and a little Celtic sparkle. Our Women's Signature Aran Celtic Zipper Hooded Cardigan is made in Ireland from soft, non-itchy merino, with a honeycomb stitch and a Trinity knot zip pull.
It's paired with matching sterling silver Trinity knot earrings, handcrafted in County Kilkenny.
9. The Classic Irish Gentlemen Gift Set-Available Here
For the man who loves a classic.
Our Men's Fisherman Heritage Sweater is pure wool, made in Ireland with the honeycomb stitch. We've added a Heritage Plaid Irish Flat Cap from Mucros Weavers in Kerry, and a gift-boxed merino lambswool herringbone scarf from McNutt of Donegal. Kerry tweed and Donegal wool, together in one gift.
10. Lulu Aran Coat & Celtic Earrings Gift Set-Available Here
I've saved the most personal for last, because this coat carries my name and was the first piece I bought for myself when I founded The Irish Store in 2011.
The Hooded Aran Zipper Lulu Classic Coat is made in Ireland from soft merino, with traditional Aran stitches, a cozy hood, two side pockets and a Trinity knot zipper.
We've paired it with sterling silver Trinity knot earrings, handcrafted in County Kilkenny and hallmarked at Dublin Castle.
Getting your gifts in time for Christmas
Every gift set ships directly from us in Ireland. Delivery to the US usually takes 3 to 5 business days by standard shipping, and Canada usually takes 5 to 10.
A few things worth knowing before you order:
- Smart Shipping: you pay shipping on just one item, and everything else in your order ships free.
- Free returns: you can return items free within 3 months. Earrings can't be returned, including earrings in a gift set. This applies to the Claddagh, Cozy Celtic and Lulu Aran Coat sets.
