About Burren Jewellery

During my childhood in the 1980s, I performed various errands for my parents’ jewellery shop, Elvira’s, located on Talbot Street in Dublin. As a teenager, I transitioned to working behind the counter, selling jewellery to local customers. At that time, security measures were implemented by a large German Shepherd named Bryo, but this did not prevent a nighttime robbery that ultimately led to the shop’s closure. Having remained in the industry as an adult with other retail shops and wholesalers, I was pleasantly surprised to observe that the same jewellery items I had sold two decades earlier were experiencing a resurgence in popularity. I believe that virtually every conceivable design, with the exception of a few, has been transformed into a jewellery piece, and these designs tend to cycle in and out of fashion over time. In 2014, I felt compelled to establish a brand that would capture and reflect these emerging trends. Quality and affordability were paramount considerations when selecting the materials for our designs. Consequently, we opted for an 18k 3 micron gold plating (French Plaqúe Or standard) in a soft champagne gold color to enhance our creations. Finally, I felt compelled to name our brand. When my parents’ shop closed, there were several watch repairs that remained uncollected for several years. One particular watch caught my attention, with a name I loved, an old square-faced Buren watch from Switzerland. Read their story
