The Claddagh Ring!
An Irish Claddagh Ring is one of those beautiful little symbols that carries a whole lot of meaning in a tiny piece of jewelry. The design is simple but powerful: two hands holding a heart topped with a crown. The hands stand for friendship, the heart for love, and the crown for loyalty — the three things that truly hold relationships together.
Traditionally, people wear the ring with the heart pointing inward if they’re taken, or outward if they’re single and open to love. It’s been gifted for centuries, ever since a fisherman in the village of Claddagh began making them back in the 1700s.
Today, the Claddagh Ring is still shared to mark special moments — anniversaries, commitments, or just as a meaningful reminder of connection. It’s a timeless way to honor love, loyalty, and friendship, and a lovely nod to Irish heritage that’s worn all around the world.
