Saw Framed

Hall: Local Enterprise Office Showcase Stand: L15
Saw Framed is an Irish creative studio founded by artist and sculptor Hannah McGrenera in Cork, Ireland. Established in 2019, the studio takes its name from the jeweller’s saw frame— a hand tool central to metalwork — and from the act of framing drawings and ideas. Together, these references reflect a practice grounded in process, patience, and care.

Rooted in Chinese calligraphy, drawing sits at the heart of the studio. Working with ink and pen, Hannah creates hand-drawn works that explore Irish life through everyday rituals, humour, and quiet moments of connection. The drawings begin as a mindful, meditative process for the artist and are intended to offer the same pause for the viewer — inviting reflection, comfort, and an appreciation of small, ordinary moments. They are made for those in moments of healing, and for those who feel a sense of homesickness or longing.

For Showcase Ireland 2026, Saw Framed presents a collection of signed fine art prints, offering a framed extension of the drawing practice. Printed on museum-quality paper, professionally mounted and finished with the artist’s personal red seal, these works allow the drawings to exist as standalone pieces of art, alongside the metal work.

Following her graduation from Crawford College of Art & Design in 2004, Hannah transitioned from large-scale sculpture to jewellery, translating sculptural thinking into wearable precious-metal forms. After six years of building Saw Framed, I am entering a new chapter of my practice. My work is transitioning into limited-edition metalwork wearable art, embracing my role as a sculptor in full.

From 2026 onward, Saw Framed will offer limited editions only. This year, the studio presents a 12-piece Limited Edition Collection. Each piece is designed to be collectable, hallmarked in Dublin Castle for sterling silver, and stamped with the Date Letter Hallmark marking its year of creation — a touch of heritage and traceability that honours traditional craft. Every design is produced in a strictly limited run; once an edition is complete, it will not return, preserving rarity and allowing each piece the time and attention it deserves. I welcome thoughtful partnerships with stockists, galleries, and collectors who value artistry and quality.

Buyers are warmly invited to visit Stand L15 in the LEO Cork City section to experience the work in person — from considered fine art prints to carefully handcrafted wearable art — and to spend time with pieces made to be lived with, collected, and quietly cherished.

Thank you.
