I'm trying to think of an idea for a traditional Irish gift or something quintessentially Galway to present to an international group visiting us this year.

Budget is tight at €100.

The conscensus is to get a hunk of Galway Crystal with an inscription on it marking the event, but I think that's a bit boring.

I'd love to get something like a hooker sail on a plaque, or a slate etching, but I'm out of ideas as to where to get such things.

I'd love to support a traditional craftsmaker with something like this.

Anyone got any help / suggestions?
