The Story Behind the Design
The Lydon name in Ireland — O'Loideain in Irish, also anglicised as Leyden — is a Gaelic Irish surname found in County Galway and the Connacht region, the family part of the native Irish community of the west. The Lydon families were part of the Gaelic world of County Galway, a county whose landscape stretches from Lough Corrib and the city of Galway to the wild coastlines of Connemara and the Aran Islands. This Irish woven blanket features the Lydon family crest against the Irish National Tartan, honouring a County Galway Gaelic heritage.
The Name
The Lydon families of Galway and Connacht were part of the Gaelic Irish community of the west, their name found in the records of the county through the medieval and early modern periods. The name is also found as Leyden in some branches, both forms representing the same Gaelic original O'Loideain. The families who carried this name were part of the dense Gaelic Irish population of Connacht that maintained its identity through the upheavals of the Tudor conquest and the Connacht Plantation, and the Lydon name today is found across Galway and throughout the west of Ireland diaspora.
Craftsmanship
This blanket is woven from premium cotton yarn — the Lydon family crest and the Irish National Tartan formed within the textile structure during weaving, not applied to the surface. Consistent woven depth on both sides, a soft and substantial feel, and traditional fringed edges complete the piece correctly.
