About this listen
Matthew sits down with Eoin Ryan of Straffan Antiques, a family-run business in County Kildare that has built a strong reputation for high-quality antique furniture and expert restoration.
Eoin shares his journey from growing up around antiques to becoming a central figure in the business himself. He reflects on the craftsmanship of centuries past, the changing tastes of buyers, and the challenges of running a traditional antiques business in a modern world.
He also gives us a glimpse into some of the remarkable pieces he’s encountered over the years — from intricately carved 18th-century furniture to rare Irish-made finds — and explains why he believes antique furniture is seeing such a resurgence in recent years.
