Yet another reason to visit An Rinn.... you get to visit Criostal na Rinne and Rhe master cutter Eamonn Terry.... or Eamonn Ó Turraoin as we know him here. Beidh fáilte mór romhat.

This week marks the anniversary of Eamonn starting his apprenticeship with Waterford Crystal to become a glass cutter.

It was the start of a journey in craft and mastery, one that would eventually bring him home to An Rinn and to the founding of Criostal na Rinne.
