Quirke Irish Heritage Woven Blanket | Family Crest Tartan Throw

The Quirke name belongs to the Gaelic heritage of Munster — a surname carried through County Tipperary and the surrounding counties for centuries. This carefully woven blanket honours that lineage through the Quirke family crest and the warm tones of the Irish National Tartan, a piece of lasting textile craft.

The Quirke Name

O'Cuirc in Irish — from the personal name Corc, of ancient Munster origin — the Quirke family were a Gaelic sept rooted in the Tipperary region. The name Corc itself carries royal associations, borne by Corc of Cashel, a legendary early king of Munster whose descendants gave rise to several of the great Eoghanacht families. The Quirkes settled in the barony of Iffamore in County Tipperary, where the name remains well established today. Anglicised variously as Quirke, Quirk, and O'Quirke, the family maintained their Munster identity through the plantation era and beyond.

Woven Craftsmanship

This is a woven blanket, not a printed one. The Quirke crest and Irish tartan design are built into the fabric itself — integral to every thread, giving the piece its weight, visual depth, and lasting durability. Premium cotton yarn and traditional fringed edges complete the heirloom-quality finish.
