Wild Goose Gallery, Take this hand
At certain moments in our lives, words will run out.
Take this hand is about compassion and what it might look like. A simple touch of the hand from a loved one, can say so much more than words ever will.
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage - Lao Tzu.
Let them know you are listening without saying a word.
This is an original design by Irish artist Nadia Corridan. Her collection for Wild Goose Studio is inspired by the Eight Pillars of Joy by the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu. Carved by Adam Grabski, it has a carefully polished pure bronze finish with a ceramic resin cold cast pouring and was then framed at our studio in Kinsale.

We’re well aware of the impact that consumer purchasing decisions can have on the environment. As a retailer, we feel our highest responsibility is to ensure that we’re taking measures to minimize our impact, and the impact of our customers' purchases, on the environment.
Here are some of the ways we plan to play our part for the planet:
- Sustainable packaging
- Re-use of cardboard and brown paper received from suppliers in customer orders
- Continuously educate our team about the environmental crisis and explore ways that we can use our business to help
- Deal primarily with Irish suppliers to minimize our carbon footprint
- Aiming to be plastic free
Quinlans was started by Brigin and John P Quinlan in Macroom, County Cork. We’ve had some fantastic people join our team over the years, and any success that we’ve had is as much theirs as it is ours. Our current team is small and we pride ourselves on cultivating a culture where people can be themselves at work, feel safe and appreciated, and have an opportunity to continuously learn and develop.
There’s something special about seeing a person master his or her craft. We’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the most talented Irish and European craft makers, from ceramics and glass to jewellery and textiles. We carefully choose the suppliers we work with and operate through trust and transparency to ensure lasting relationships are formed. We value getting to know the people behind the products that we offer.
