What happened to Irish Dresden Dolls? The web site is no longer working? Can I still buy it at Dublin airport?

Answer 1

In 1962, the factory now known as 'Irish Dresden' was established at Dromcolliher, County Limerick. The process had begun of establishing in Ireland the traditions and skills of fine lace porcelain manufacture, previously to be found only in Theuringia.

In 1968 tragedy struck with the untimely death of co-founder Oskar Saar. The family tradition survived however, and Irish Dresden, now run by Johanna Saar and her daughter Sabina, continues to produce magnificent porcelain figures and other fine porcelain giftware under the original stamp of 'Muller - Volkstedt'.

I'm not sure about dolls but you can see some children figurines here: http://www.houseofireland.com/pages/Iris...
