Dublin's Fair City - Number 1 6/9 Vase

Home to so much historical architecture and countless literary legends, Dublin’s Fair City blends old world-vibes with friendly, down-to-earth charm and even holds children playing by the quay. Kerry’s grandmother, a Dublin flower seller, pushed her barrow in the 2022 design, The Flower Seller. Now Kerry takes us on a city walk, with fellow Dubliners of her mother Kathleen’s generation, as adults stride around the vase itself discussing ‘that yung wan up the road’ and children greet with a loud, reciprocal ‘Howaya’ in their little caps.

The sprawling campus of Trinity College, Dublin Castle and Christ Church Cathedral can be explored. Christchurch, the oldest building in continuous use in the entire city, has a story that begins almost a thousand years ago when a Viking king erected the first church. The landmarks are viewed across the River Liffey with Ha’penny Bridge straddling part of the vase. Constructed in 1816, people were then charged ha’penny to cross. The bridge itself is a slice of ‘old-world’ Dublin that Kathleen fondly recalls galloping across, as she gazed through the ornate ironwork at the colourful Georgian and Neoclassical terraced structures coloured, unusually, in pinks, reds and even oranges.
