Product Description:
Great sterling silver earrings feature the Claddagh symbol used as the hoop. Approximately 3/4" wide (19 mm). They are made in Ireland and come in a 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 in North Africa where he learned the art of a goldsmith. When he was released, nothing could keep him from his beloved Galway where he returned to 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, which 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.

Nice Every Day Earrings By lostinMT
Although these hoops are smaller they don't get lost. I've worn mine almost constantly since receiving them and they are very, very comfortable. My job requires me to wear a phone headset much of the time and the earrings don't get in the way or dig into the back of my ear. The design makes them interesting and I've had people ask me about them. They'd make a nice gift.
