The tiny fishing village of Claddagh bustles feverishly, a chaotic smorgasbord of motion and sound. The year is 1593 and Master Goldsmith Richard Joyce gazes out upon Galway Bay, preoccupied with his latest custom design. A design destined to become an enduring part of Ireland's heritage.
The Claddagh Ring, features two hands grasping a heart, topped by a crown.
It symbolizes Love, Friendship and Loyalty. Worn on the right hand with the crown turned inward, it means the heart is unoccupied. Crown turned out means love is being considered . . . and when worn on the left hand, it tells the world your heart is truly spoken for.
At Kingston Fine Jewelry we have an incredible selection of gold Claddagh rings and pendants.
