King Carl Gustas - Sweden


In recognition of King Carl Gustaf of Sweden’s passion for silver, President Mary Robinson presented him with a pair of sterling silver candlesticks crafted by renowned Irish silversmith Kevin O’Dwyer during her state visit. The gift was carefully chosen to honor the King’s well-known collection and appreciation for fine craftsmanship, while showcasing Ireland’s contemporary silversmithing tradition. O’Dwyer’s elegant design combined modern aesthetics with classic techniques, making the candlesticks both a personal tribute to the King’s interests and a symbol of the friendly relations between Ireland and Sweden.
