Redman Irish Family Gifts & Heritage

Redman is an English surname, not a native Irish one — it most likely began as a place name from Redmain in Cumberland, or as a nickname for someone with red hair or a ruddy complexion. It arrived in Ireland through the wave of English settlement that followed the Cromwellian confiscations of the 1650s and the Williamite war's end in 1691, rather than through any Gaelic or Anglo-Norman sept.

You'll find the Redman crest across woven blankets, throw blankets, mugs, garden flags, ceramic ornaments, framed ornaments, coaster sets, and license plates here — plenty of ways to work the name into daily life or put it on display, whatever suits the person you're shopping for.

Works well for a birthday, a get-together, a trip back to Ireland, or honestly just because. A mug or blanket blends into daily life, while a flag or t-shirt makes more of a statement.

The best choice really just depends on the person — some people want it on the wall, some want it in their pocket, some want it on their morning coffee.
