Meet Agota Gilbride—the creative soul behind Timea Jewellery.✨

Timea is more than a jewellery brand; it’s a labour of love shaped by family, heritage, and the hands that craft every single piece. Agota draws inspiration from her Hungarian roots in Transylvania, where the artistry of her grandmother and mother first sparked her passion for tactile craftsmanship. You might even spot echoes of ancient Celtic aesthetics woven into her designs—a connection she's thrilled to explore further now that she calls Ireland home. 🇭🇺✨🇮🇪

For the past 7 years, Ireland has captivated her—not just with its landscapes, but with the warmth of its people. Today, she lives on the outskirts of Courtown, Co. Wexford, with her husband and young son, where every piece you see is dreamed up, designed, and handcrafted with care.

We’re so excited to have Timea as part of our brand-new pop-up shop in the cabins at The Village Wheelocks! 🛍️

Take your time, browse, and we hope you find something that speaks to your heart as much as it does to hers.

After all the setting up and the late nights—we are FINALLY ready to welcome you to our brand-new Pop-Up Shop at The Village, Wheelocks Fruit Farm, near Enniscorthy town! 🍓🏡

We're four local Wexford makers, coming together under one amazing roof in the picturesque Wheelocks Fruit Farm, and we've filled the space with the very best of locally made crafts and gifts. Here's a little taste of what you'll find:

🖼️ Design Notions – Personalised Heartmap prints connecting places and made to order, along with hand cut lino prints and some photography (yes, the ones that caught the RTE Nationwide crew's eye! 📺)

🔥 Fire & Stain – Beautiful wooden pieces, burned, coloured, and fractured into stunning accessories for the home. Think iconic lighthouses, clocks, and brand-new designs for 2026!

🧶 Kosy Knitwear – Gorgeous designs made from soft merino wool, sourced from Kilcar in Donegal. Cosy, timeless, and utterly irresistible.

💍 TiMÉA Jewellery – Handcrafted crocheted sterling silver jewellery that sparks connection. Truly unique pieces you won't find anywhere else. 🩶

And when you're done browsing, why not make a full day of it?
🍓 Pick your own strawberries (the sweetest you'll taste!) and grab a delicious bite to eat in Wheelocks' wonderful restaurant. The perfect summer outing! ☀️
