National Collections
The first purchases were made in 2004 for the new National Craft Collection, co-funded by CCoI and the National Museum of Ireland. Discussions with the Department of Foreign Affairs in regard to commissioning craft for consulates and embassies led to the first purchases for the Department of Foreign Affairs Craft Collection. Commitment was made by the Department of Foreign Affairs and  CCoI to co-fund €30,000 of craft to furnish Irish embassies and consulates over the period 2005 – 08. In 2004, €34,119 of work made by Ireland’s leading craftspeople was purchased to initiate these prestigious new collections.
