聖体拝領はCladdaghを意味する

It’s Communion season and the perfect Communion gift is a Claddagh ring in silver, yellow gold or white gold.

First Communion often marks the time when a child receives their first piece of jewelry and this is something that they will treasure forever. If you are thinking of buying a gift for a friend, daughter or niece, then a Claddagh ring is a wonderful choice as they will be getting a precious piece of jewelry but you’ll also be passing on one of the most fascinating symbols of Irish history, heritage and tradition.

Children of First Communion age will be able to appreciate the special story of the Claddagh ring and its important place in the history of Ireland. The Claddagh ring first came from the tiny fishing village of Claddagh, located just outside the walls of Galway City, back as far as the 17th century.  

The Claddagh ring belongs to a group of European rings called ‘fede’ rings. The name comes from the phrase ‘mani in fede’ which is Italian and means ‘joined in faith’, which is so appropriate for Communion Day. 

Our baby Claddagh, which is available in either silver, yellow gold or white gold, is the smallest ring in the collection at Rings from Ireland. It is available in sizes 1 to 6. The Claddagh features three evocative symbols – the hands signify friendship, the heart symbolizes love and the crown represents loyalty.

If you would like to add to the gift or give the First Communicant something to treasure in later years, there are also matching Claddagh earrings (studs or drop earrings) available in silver, yellow gold or white gold.  

Claddagh jewelry is a wonderful way to celebrate Irish tradition around the world and if the gift is being sent as a present abroad the recipient will be getting a piece of jewelry that is not only authentically Irish in its construction, it is authentically Irish in its hallmark. Every piece bears the world famous imprint of the Irish Assays Office. This office is located in the grounds of Dublin Castle in the center of Dublin and guarantees and endorses the authenticity of the piece of jewelry.

First Communion Day – They’ll be chuffed with their Claddagh!
