What's in a name?
Our name—Stag & Harp—comes from the symbols found on the 1990 Irish Pound worn by our founder, Andrea Tabacchi. The coin was a gift from a friend in 1995.
"Our families had met in 1990. At the time, I thought it was too much a coincidence that the coin was minted in the same year we’d all met so I never spent it, and instead began wearing it as a necklace."Over time, the coin came to represent something bigger.
"I thought about my friends, their life experiences, my own, and how we were the kind of people that had been knocked down in life a few times but we always managed to get back up. We not only survive, but we still manage to see the good in people and the beauty in the world. We’re still enthusiastic and find inspiration to go and explore further. So the stag and harp came to represent the qualities I strive to emulate each day. Strength and grace on one side, and joy and harmony on the other."
