Product Description:
This Sterling Silver Ring has a traditional Claddagh symbol raised on an oxidized band, giving it a great two-tone look. It measures approximately 5/16", or 7.9 mm, wide. This ring is made in Ireland and stamped at Dublin Castle, and comes in a ring box for gift giving.Legend has it that the Claddagh symbol was originated by Richard Joyce, a Galway seafarer kidnapped by pirates and sold into slavery where he learned the art of a goldsmith. After years of being away from his beloved he returned to her in his hometown of Galway and soon become a master goldsmith and where he created the Claddagh ring. For centuries this was used as a wedding ring by the fisher folk of Claddagh village, nestled outside the walls of Galway city in the west of Ireland. Claddagh rings are still worn as friendship, engagement or wedding rings depending on how they are worn.
Friendship: if worn on the right hand with the heart facing outwards, the wearer is single and looking for love; the heart facing inwards means the wearer is in a relationship.
Engagement: by placing the ring on the third finger of your left hand with the heart pointing outwards.
Wedding: represented by placing the ring on the third finger of your left hand with the heart pointing inwards towards your heart.
