Galway Hooker Sterling Silver Pendant

Handmade by Robert Blacoe, this beautiful sterling silver pendant is a nod to our infamous Galway Hooker sailing boats. 

Renowned for its beauty and resilience these 'workhorses of the west' are an iconic symbol of Galways' enduring relationship with the sea. Their name is derived from 'hook and line' fishing, which involved long lines of baited hooks being dragged behind the boat with fish being caught when they took the bait. With beautiful distinctive red sails, these boats are a beloved part of Galway's history and culture.
