Family Heritage Marble

The Joyce family have been quarrying Connemara Green marble for four generations. Connemara marble is Irelands rarest stone and the skills needed to quarry it can only be gained through experience and time. We are sure that the standards and values that have been developed over the past 100 years will continue into the future. We will continue to strive for excellence endeavouring to provide the best colours available for our customers.

Our green marble continues to be used in some of the most important buildings in the world. Examples showcasing our marble include Leinster House (the seat of the Irish govenment). The museum building in Trinity College Dublin (home of the book of Kells). The Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, England. The Natural History museum London. The University Club at West 54th street at New York. More recently our marble has been used in Dolce & Gabbana’s venice boutique

I always pick a misty day to select the marble for our jewellery. This is because the best stones shine brightest in the wet before they are polished. The marble we choose has taken mother nature 800 million years to perfect, so we make sure to take our time to select only the best for you. 

Each stone is unique, just like the landscape it has come from
