Brat Bhríde – Celebrate St. Brigid’s Day with a Timeless Irish Tradition
The Brat Bhríde is a piece of cloth left outside overnight on the eve of St. Brigid’s Day (31st January). Rooted in Irish tradition and making a strong comeback, especially since Ireland’s new St. Brigid’s Day bank holiday in 2023.
The idea is that St. Brigid blesses the cloth as she passes by, and it can then be used for healing throughout the year. If someone is unwell, they can hold it or keep it near them, and it’s said that the healing properties in it can help to make them better. It can be a cloth, a scarf, or even a piece of ribbon!
I love the idea of bringing this part of Irish heritage into modern homes.
Unique Design Features:
• Original Art: This 24x25-inch Brat Bhríde features my hand-drawn illustration of St. Brigid's Cross (Cros Bríde), set against a faint background of swirling line art. To my mind, these intricate swirls represent the magic of the blessings and healing imparted by Brigid as she passes.
• Meaningful Keepsake: Perfect for connecting with Irish culture, starting or continuing a healing tradition, as a thoughtful gift, or as décor with a story to tell.
• Made with Recycled Materials: it has a soft, lightweight feel and is made with 65% recycled polyester, giving new life to materials that would otherwise go to waste.
Care Instructions:
• Hand wash or use a gentle cycle in cold water.
• Line dry to preserve quality and vibrancy.
Dimensions:
• 24 in. x 25 in.
Shipping Details:
• FREE shipping to EU / UK / USA (Shipping elsewhere available at checkout).
• Delivery Times:
EU & UK: 5–7 business days
USA: 8–11 business days
Please allow an extra 5 working days for any unexpected delays.
