OVER THE YEARS
1895
Founded
The company was established in 1895 where James O’Neill, a Tin Smith by trade made, pots, pans and canisters for a living along with his sons.
1950
Expanding
His son Edward took over the business in the 1950s and introduced a wide range of products including metal kitchen canopies, gift art, sculptures and fireplace hoods.
The openness to adapt to modern trends lead the business to expand supply to Ireland, wider UK and parts of Europe. It was quickly noticed that architecture was becoming more popular. Eddie with old press.
1990
Made to Order
In the 1990s Edward’s son Paul took over the reigns.
With industrial change bespoke canopies and fireplace hoods and gift art demand began to decease, Paul responded by investigating other markets like architecture and design. This move proved successful as Rathbanna thrives on providing superior metalwork made to order.
