Fine Irish Linen Kinsale Cloak for Christening - "Tara Brooch" Style Pure Irish linen, inspired designs and generations of County Donegal craftsmanship come together in the making of this handsome christening cloak, featuring an embroidered Celtic cross. One size, for little girls or boys up to 12 months. The embroidery is modeled on the Tara Brooch, one of Ireland's best-known antiquities. Probably made about thirteen hundred years ago, the real Tara is an ornate Celtic ring brooch - made of gold, silver, copper, amber and glass - which was found on the seashore at Bettystown, south of Drogheda, and is now preserved in the National Museum of Ireland in Dublin.
