Product Details

‘Éirím inniu… / I arise today…’

Celebrating one of Ireland’s patron saints, the pillow takes words attributed to St. Patrick and makes them the focal point.

Often called the Breastplate of St. Patrick, this lorica prayer is said to have been invoked by the saint as a prayer of protection. In the hagiography, St. Patrick and his followers appeared as deer to those lying in ambush against them. It’s always been a personal favourite of mine, and St. Patrick is special to me, so this piece contains a fair bit of sentiment from me to you. I hope you enjoy making this piece and it brings luck and fortune to you and yours.
