Geraghty Irish Woven Blanket | Family Crest Tartan Throw

The Geraghty name — Mag Oireachtaigh in Irish, from oireacht, meaning assembly or court — is a Gaelic Irish surname rooted in County Roscommon and the Connacht province, its bearers historically associated with the Gaelic assembly tradition of the west. The Geraghty families were part of the Connacht Gaelic world, their name connected to the ancient institution of the oireacht — the assembly of freemen that formed the political unit of Irish Gaelic society. This Irish woven blanket features the Geraghty family crest woven into the Irish National Tartan, honouring a proud Roscommon and Connacht heritage.

History & Heritage

The Mag Oireachtaigh — the Geraghtys — were a Connacht Gaelic family whose territory was in the Roscommon region, part of the great Gaelic world of the west centred on the O'Connor kings of Connacht. Their name's connection to the oireacht — the assembly — suggests a family with a role in the political and judicial life of the Gaelic community, a family of standing in the Connacht world. The Geraghty name is today found across the Irish diaspora, carried by families whose roots lie in the lakes and plains of Roscommon.

Construction

This blanket is woven from premium cotton yarn — the Geraghty family crest and the Irish National Tartan integrated into the textile structure during weaving, not applied to the surface. The design is part of the cloth itself, with consistent woven depth on both sides, a soft and substantial feel, and traditional fringed edges completing the piece in the appropriate manner.
