15 years of flair and elegance

One of Cork’s most respected independent jewellery workshops is to celebrate being open for 15 years in the city with a special weekend event.

Designworks Studio is a renowned Cork city jewellery studio specialising in ethical diamonds, unique gemstones and bespoke wedding jewellery. To mark the anniversary, the studio plans to host a customer appreciation weekend on Friday 3 and Saturday 4 April.

Located on Cornmarket Street in the heart of the city, this award-winning studio is led by goldsmith and designer Tuula Harrington, whose passion for craftsmanship and design has helped shape its reputation.

The anniversary marks a significant milestone in the studio’s journey as a creative hub for thoughtful design, ethical sourcing and fine customer service. Since opening its doors in 2011, Designworks Studio has showcased a wide range of Irish designers, bringing a new jewellery offering to the people of Cork. The championing and promotion of up-and-coming talent has been particularly important to Tuula.

Over the past decade and a half, the studio has built a reputation for delivering high-quality design while contributing to Cork’s vibrant creative community. Working with local businesses and creatives has helped drive the business’ success.

“Reaching 15 years in Cork City is an important moment for us,” said Tuula. “We’re grateful to the clients, collaborators and community who have supported us along the way. Cork has always been a city full of creativity and energy, and we’re proud to be part of that.”

To mark the anniversary, the studio plans to host a customer appreciation weekend on Friday 3 and Saturday 4 April. Come celebrate with Tuula and the team and try on some of their recent jewellery creations.
