I have wanted to do this post for the longest while. The Irish Linen Shop is situated at Heyl's Corner at the junction of Queen and Front Streets near the infamous 'Birdcage' and is housed in the old Apothecaries' Hall building. Don't let the name or the traditional exterior fool you, The Irish Linen Shop is what I would call a hidden gem. Its quaint, historic facade hides a veritable treasure trove of beautiful and luxurious products sourced from around the world. Historically the largest distributor of luxury bed and table linens in Bermuda with Le Jacquard Francais, Beauville, Yves Delorme and more recently Serena & Lily on offer, Elaine Murray, buyer and part-owner has gradually expanded the shop's inventory. It now carries more than just linen these days, including a wide range of children's clothes, toys and books from Petit Bateau, Papo d'Anjo and Chantal, home accessories and small furnishings from Michael Aram, Mariposa and Cire Trudon, art books, candles and toiletries.
The Irish Linen Shop has long been one of my favourite places for buying gifts, treating myself or just browsing. You are guaranteed to find beautiful and usual items which cannot be found elsewhere locally. Have a look around The Irish Linen Shop after the jump.
