Spring In Ireland
There is no greener spring than that of Ireland, where lambs take their first steps, rhododendrons flourish along winding lanes, and the landscape bursts with life.
This season, Luxe In Lore highlights three products to covet and collect, each a reflection of Ireland’s enduring craftsmanship and timeless style from Soak Wellness of Sligo, Rathbornes 1488 of Dublin, and Hanna Hats of Donegal.
SoakinWellness
Soak Ritual Soak: Atlantic-inspired wellness. SoakinWellness is an award-winning Irish bath and body rituals brand combining 100% Atlantic sea salt, Irish seaweed, and organic herbs grown in the Soak garden to support sleep, relaxation, and glowing skin.
Handcrafted along the Wild Atlantic Way. Soak’s sea and aromatherapy products are meticulously made by hand in small batches in Sligo, capturing the restorative spirit of Ireland’s rugged west coast.

A favorite of Ireland’s finest stays. Soak is adored by guests of five-star resorts dotting the coasts of Ireland, bringing a spa-level Atlantic bathing ritual home.
Featured Spring Product: SoakinWellness Joy Connects Bath Salts—lime oil and organic sage wake up the senses, lift the mood, and organic almond oil and organic Irish seaweed renew and deeply moisturize winter skin in this Atlantic sea soak, a perfect preview of all of those summer days in the ocean.
Rathbornes 1488
A candlelit legacy since 1488. Rathbornes 1488 is the world’s oldest candle company, crafting luxury home fragrances in Dublin for over five centuries.
Handcrafted in Dublin. Each candle is slowly hand-poured using 100% natural waxes, Italian cotton wicks, and a higher fragrance oil concentration for a clean, even burn and long-lasting scent.
Featured Spring Product: Inspired by Dublin’s historic gardens and specially packaged for Mother’s Day the bestselling Dublin Tea Rose, Oud & Patchouli Candle carries notes of bright citrus, raspberry, creamy rosebuds and vanilla a perfect accompaniment to those spring days of opening the windows and letting fresh Cape Cod air inside.
Hanna Hats
Spring will surely be in your step with an Irish linen cap from Hanna Hats—perfect for outdoor adventures from the sidelines to the brewery to those first steps onto the beach. Light, breathable, and effortlessly refined, their linen caps capture the relaxed spirit of the season.

Truly handcrafted in Donegal. In an age of mass production, each cap is individually cut, sewn, and shaped by skilled artisans in their Donegal Town workshop.
A century of craft. Founded in 1924, Hanna Hats is a third-generation family business that has spent 100 years perfecting the art of Donegal headwear—and it shows in every stitch.
A charming Irish detail. Your hat even arrives with a crumpled page from a Donegal newspaper tucked inside to help hold its shape during shipping—a wonderfully local touch. Featured Spring Style: Hanna Hats Donegal Touring Cap in Irish linen in two of our favorite color for life on the coast of the Cape & Islands: Navy Glen Check and Patchwork Grey Blue—perfect for spring days.
Spring returns softly to the Atlantic shores—from the wild Irish coast to the windswept edges of Cape Cod—bringing longer light, salt air, and the quiet promise of renewal. Along these coasts, landscape and tradition continue to inspire the beauty of things made with care.
