W.B.Yeats Glass Art

The Lake Isle of Innisfree Sun Catcher – A Unique, Handcrafted Tribute to Yeats

Embrace the beauty of Irish literary heritage with this unique sun catcher, a handmade glass tribute to W.B. Yeats’s beloved The Lake Isle of Innisfree. Designed with translucent, kiln-fused glass, each word of the poem is carefully hand-painted in crushed black glass, bringing the text to life with enduring elegance. Below, two swans face each other on turquoise waters, capturing the serene beauty of nature that inspired Yeats.

This special piece was created in our seaside studio by Isobelle Donnellan, whose design reflects her personal connection to the poet. Yeats was a frequent visitor to Duras House, her family home and a famed literary gathering place in 1898 alongside Lady Gregory. This versatile glass piece can be enjoyed as a sun catcher, casting poetic light through its delicate design, or as an artistic bookmark, offering a personal moment of reflection.

A truly unique gift, perfect for book lovers and admirers of Ireland’s rich cultural legacy.
