Located on Chicago's North Shore, the Irish Connoisseur has been one of Glenview's best kept secrets since 1986. Megan Van Treeck, owner, fills her shop with the rich treasures of Ireland, including crystal by Waterford, Galway and Irish Heritage; Belleek Parian China; and pottery by Nicholas Mosse. It is the ideal place to find handmade sweaters, celtic jewelry and claddagh rings, framed blessings and prints,
specialty gifts by Reed & Barton, and authentic Irish Food. We offer excellent customer service, Fedex shipping and free gift wrapping.
THE IRISH CONNOISSEUR IS the perfect choice when you need a gift for a
special event, wedding, baby, anniversary, birthday, retirement, thank you & corporate.
You don't need to be Irish to enjoy the Irish Connoisseur.
Pre-Registration is appreciated.
