Essentially Irish

In Essentially Irish, antiques dealer and stylist Josephine Ryan offers a privileged glimpse into a fascinating array of Irish homes. The interiors featured include elegant Georgian country houses, chic city apartments, pretty cottages and striking contemporary homes. Their decorative styles may differ, but each home demonstrates what has made Irish interiors admired the world over - a rich colour palette, a close affinity with the landscape, an appreciation of the patina of the antique and a passion for the work created by a rich tradition of artists and craftsmen. The homes in this book are every bit as varied as their creative owners, and the carefully chosen locations illustrate the many facets of classic Irish style. This book is perfect for anyone who seeks ideas for their own Irish-inspired interior, or for those who simply want to dream... * From the author of the best-selling French Home (more than 37,000 copies sold). * An easy-to-achieve, beautiful look for anyone who loves Ireland and Irish style. * Stunning photography by leading Irish interiors photographer James Fennell.
