Started twenty-nine years ago, Padraig Cottage is still owned and operated by Helen and Jeremy Long. Modeled after a traditional cottage industry, today they employ over twenty skilled local artisans and are involved in all aspects of the business. With the help of her daughter-in-law Rie, Helen spends most of her time between design, training and production management, while Jeremy focuses on the wholesale customers and overseeing the construction of the display units.
