Cinco magníficos Claddaghs y cómo usarlos

The Claddagh story is timeless and a beautiful tale with love and positive messages at the heart of it. A distinctively Irish symbol, it’s now hugely popular internationally and wearing it as a piece of jewelry whether it’s a ring, necklace, bracelet or earrings is a nod to Irish and Celtic heritage and culture.

From the tiny village in Galway Bay in the West of Ireland of the same name, the Claddagh was traditionally kept with great pride as a family heirloom and passed lovingly from mother to daughter on her wedding day. Nowadays Claddagh jewelry is worn in many different ways by men, women and children, hundreds of years after Richard Joyce is said to have created this beautiful ring.  

Here are five gorgeous Claddaghs that certainly shine!
