Celebrate Your Connection to County Sligo
Honor your connection to Yeats Country with this County Sligo Heritage Crest Print from the Ireland Inspires Origins Collection. Combining historic symbolism with a refined watercolor finish, this framed artwork offers an understated celebration of Sligo heritage.
About the Design
The County Sligo crest is carefully rendered in a refined watercolor style and set against a softly textured parchment-style background.
The county name and the title “Yeats Country” complete the composition, creating a balanced heritage piece suited to both traditional and contemporary homes.
About the County Sligo Crest
The black shield is scattered with scallop shells and features an open book bearing a Celtic cross and a red rose. A boar’s head appears in the lower section of the arms.
The scallop shells reflect the Irish name Sligeach, commonly interpreted as “the shelly place” or “abounding in shells.” The open book represents Sligo’s literary and cultural heritage, including the historic Books of Ballymote and Lecan. The Celtic cross reflects the county’s early Christian heritage, while the red rose recalls a recurring symbol in the poetry of W. B. Yeats.
The boar’s head refers to the wild boar of Benbulben from the legend of Diarmuid and Gráinne.
The motto “Land of Heart’s Desire” reinforces Sligo’s enduring association with poetry, imagination, and landscape. The county arms were adopted by Sligo County Council in 1980 and formally granted in 1982.
The softened watercolor finish preserves the character of the original arms while giving the design a warm and timeless quality.
About County Sligo
The name Sligo comes from the Irish Sligeach, meaning “the shelly place” or “abounding in shells.”
From Benbulben and Knocknarea to Lough Gill and the Atlantic coastline, Sligo is a county shaped by dramatic landscape, ancient mythology, and a literary legacy closely associated with W. B. Yeats.
