David Gray’s album “White Ladder”. Apparently at one point a quarter of all Irish households owned a copy, and I don’t think The Corrs’ “Talk On Corners” was far behind.
Though if I were going to nominate a CD for this, it’s more likely to be “Christy Live At The Point” or “A Woman’s Heart”.
Did anyone else’s granny have something like this?

The turf box. 100%
Photo of the sacred heart for definite. Every single house I visited as a kid had that hanging up somewhere
Those soup bowls that had the little handles and recipes on the side. Feels like almost every house had a set in the 90s like this https://www.etsy.com/listing/1901359999/vintage-soup-mugs-you-pick-datl-do-it
In Dublin it’s that weird white statue of the lady

This [Gold clock with the rotating balls](https://www.clockshop.com.au/assets/full/20054137.jpg?20211211114546) was everywhere in Ireland.

Anniversary Clocks
In rural homes an aerial photograph of the house
Waterford crystal glasses. Still in boxes and never used obviously because they’re fancy.
I have three boxes. One from a house warming present and 2 from wedding presents. 😭
