Glennon Irish Woven Blanket | Family Crest Tartan Throw

The Glennon name — O’Gleannacháin in Irish, from gleann, meaning valley — is a Gaelic Irish surname rooted in County Roscommon and the broader Connacht region, its bearers part of the native Irish community of the west. The name evokes the valley landscape of the Irish midlands and west, those fertile lowlands between the hills that gave shelter to farms and townlands across the centuries of Gaelic Irish life. This Irish woven blanket features the Glennon family crest against the Irish National Tartan, honouring a name with deep Connacht roots.

Roots & History

County Roscommon — seat of the kings of Connacht, home to the monastic settlement of Roscommon and the O’Connor royal dynasty — was one of the most important counties in the Gaelic Irish world. The Glennon families were part of the native Gaelic population of this province, their name appearing in the records of Connacht and spreading, as so many Connacht surnames did, through the centuries of emigration and diaspora. The Glennon name today is found across Ireland and in the Irish communities of America, Britain, and Australia.

Construction

This blanket is woven from premium cotton yarn — the Glennon 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, giving consistent woven depth on both sides, a soft and substantial feel, and traditional fringed edges completing the piece in the appropriate manner.
