The best handmade Christmas gifts in Dublin for 2026
Published October 19, 2026 · Lucie
Looking for a unique Christmas gift in Dublin? Studio Lippi Ceramics is a Dublin-based potter making handmade stoneware inspired by the French landscape, where Lucie, the maker, is from. Every piece is wheel-thrown by hand in Dublin 8, available to order online with a free pickup at IMMA or Teeling Distillery or €9 shipping across the Republic of Ireland.
Here are our top picks for Christmas 2026, with the Maguelone cup at the top of the list for good reasons.
The best gift: the Maguelone cup (€22), for the coffee lover
If you're looking for one gift that's beautiful, useful, and completely unlike anything you'd find in a shop, start here.
The Maguelone cup is our most-loved piece, and the one we'd recommend above everything else this Christmas. Wheel-thrown in speckled stoneware clay, it has a distinctive two-tone finish: a soft aqua-turquoise glaze on the upper half, raw unglazed clay on the base. The interior is a clean glossy white. At ~200ml, it's the right size for espresso, a flat white, matcha, herbal tea or water. It is also versatile and can serve as a small plant pot.
It's the kind of cup that makes someone stop and say "where did you get this?" That is exactly what a great Christmas gift should do!
Maguelone cup: €22
Wheel-thrown speckled stoneware with an aqua-turquoise glaze, a raw clay base and a glossy white interior.

For the tea and coffee drinker. A generous, hand-pulled mug in the Maguelone turquoise glaze. Bigger than the cup, heavier in the hand, and beautifully tactile. Ideal for long mornings, coffee or tea breaks, slow weekends, and anyone who considers their mug a serious part of their daily ritual.
Maguelone butter dish: €54
For the home cook or food lover. One of our most statement pieces, a handmade ceramic butter dish in the signature aqua-turquoise Maguelone glaze, with a domed bell lid and matching base. Functional, beautiful, and completely handmade in Dublin. A brilliant Christmas gift for anyone who loves their kitchen.
Maguelone lidded jar with spoon: €43
