Who are we?

Established in 1974, Michael Murphy Home Furnishing may have grown exponentially, but we maintain our mission to provide high-quality, stylish furniture; designed and selected by our family, for yours. We have remained a family-run business since our doors first opened, hand-selecting and designing our collections, to bring the best of interiors right to your doorstep.

Holding our core principles close we are also ever-evolving, championing design and adhering to wonderfully fluid fashions and the transformative homeware spirit, while always keeping the customer in mind; carrying on the relationship built up with families over generations. However, our support of Irish doesn’t stop at our customers. We are a proud stockist of Irish brands and individuals, with home-grown art, mattresses, cushions and more filling our stores, pulling from the talented, long-standing Irish industry around us – of which we are thrilled to be a part of.

With our flagship store located in Newbridge – the birthplace of the company almost half a century ago – and additional stores in Dublin (Airside,Blanchardstown and Sandyford), Wexford and New Ross, access to our impressive range of sofas, dining, bedding, flooring and homeware is all the easier. And our expert staff are on hand to guide you through the world of interiors, balancing remarkable value with exceptional craftsmanship.

This website (www.michaelmurphy.ie/) is owned and maintained by Michael Murphy Home Furnishing. Our postal address is: Michael Murphy & Co Limited, Edward Street, Newbridge, Co. Or you can contact us via email at info@michaelmurphy.ie
