Where are the Irish designers at auctions of design?

We have designers, craftspeople and innovators in plenty who remain relatively unknown or overlooked

With notable exceptions like Eileen Grey and Joseph Walsh Irish designers tend to get overlooked when it comes to auctions of design.

Upcoming timed online sales of design at de Veres in Dublin next Tuesday (November 1) and at Adams on Tuesday week (November 8) feature the sort of designer pieces from the middle of the last century and later that are increasingly in vogue here.
