Celebrating Irish Craftsmanship: Meet Cian Magill of Magill Woodcraft Ireland

We’re proud to shine a spotlight on one of our talented ShopInIreland.ie Ambassadors, Cian Magill, the creative mind and skilled craftsman behind Magill Woodcraft Ireland. Founded in 2016, Cian’s business brings the beauty of bespoke Irish woodcraft to life, blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design.
A graduate of GMIT Letterfrack in Furniture Design and Manufacture, Cian gained early experience in high-end furniture making, where he discovered his passion for the endless possibilities of working with wood. This passion guided him towards developing a unique style that celebrates both form and function.

Amazing, go raibh míle maith agat guys! It fills my heart with joy to hear your kind words an appreciation. You hit the nail on the head with many of the values I truly believe in. Quality craftsmanship and the conservation of our beautiful Gaelic culture in Ireland is really important to me. I don't know where I'd be without your support, and the many customers of my treasured Wooden Maps of Ireland. I was also honoured to craft one of these recently for the President of Ireland - Michael D Higgins, following a previous bespoke commission for former U.S President Joe Biden in 2024. I could never have imagined such a journey. Thank you all so much. Beannachtaí, Sláinte, agus Go leor Grá, Cian. 😊🌳💚
