The John Hanly story started back in 1893 in a disused flour mill in Ballyartella, North Tipperary. Today the fourth generation of the family, through Brian Hanly, proudly hold the reins of the company. Specialising in the manufacture of scarves, throws and fabrics in wool, cashmere, lambswool, mohair and natural fibre. With over 125 years in the textile business, Hanlys now weave fabrics and accessories for top brands, designers and quality retailers around the world. Steeped in tradition, John Hanly guarantee that the products produced are of excellent craftsmanship, outstanding quality and are timeless in their beauty.
The John Hanly brand can be seen as a "keeper of memories, memories of the past and, importantly, memories of the future". A customer who purchases a John Hanly throw is buying an instant memory to treasure. Many childhood memories are of holidays at the seaside, where the sand covered wool rug and sandwiches are thrown into the back boot of the car. These are the type of memories that John Hanly is able to give in abundance.
