Misty fables surround one of Ireland's unique reasure, "The Claddagh" a symbol of Love, Friendship and Loyalty.
Some 400 years ago a fishing village called Claddagh overlooking Galway Bay, close to the city of the Tribes, lived Richard Joyce, a Master Goldsmith. It was he who crafted this now famous design that has become part of our unique heritage.
The ring worn on the right hand, crown turned inward tells your heart is yet unoccupied, worn with the crown turned outwards reveals love is being considered. Worn on the left hand the crown turned outwards shows all, your heart is truly spoken for.
