Celebrate Grandparents Day This September

Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are firm fixtures in the calendar but did you know that Grandparents Day is celebrated every September?

From the U.S. to Ireland, grandparents will be given a special focus on Sunday September 7th and it is often a day that schools open up to invite in grandparents to see the work of their grandchildren in their classrooms.

Grandparents are often the source of valuable and intriguing background to family trees, history and genealogy and there are some nice choices from Rings from Ireland to celebrate this special day with them.

Here are three gift ideas for Grandparents Day:

Family Name Coat of Arms
Whether your grandparents are based in Ireland, have Irish connections or live abroad, wearing a piece of jewelry with their family’s Coat of Arms engraved on it is a proud way of celebrating their identity. It is a wonderful connection with their ancestry whether it is a ring, necklace or cufflinks.  Each piece can be personally customized with your own family coat of arms. A heraldry ring, such as this Gents Heavy Oval Hollow Heraldry Silver Ring below is a great option.

Claddagh Rings
Love, loyalty and friendship. Three great words to celebrate your grandparents. The famous Claddagh ring is another great choice of gift for either of your grandparents and its special meaning will have an extra resonance on this day of celebration. There are a huge range of sizes and types to choose from in silver, yellow gold and white gold for both grandmothers and grandfathers. These authentic rings, handmade in Ireland - their country of origin, bear a hallmark to distinguish them. There are many styles to choose from across a huge range of prices.

Faith Collection
Grandparents are often key to passing on faith and traditions within a family and Rings from Ireland have dedicated a full range of jewelry to the Faith Collection. As we describe the collection: “Regardless of our religious denominations, despite our various backgrounds and histories, one thing remains for us all. That is faith, unwavering and unshakable. It is what moves us and inspires us and is what keeps us believing in each other and our futures.” These beautiful pieces of Celtic jewelry are inscribed with the word ‘Faith’ in Ogham script.
