Claddagh
Claddagh is the Irish symbol of ‘Love, Loyalty and Friendship’. The hands signify friendship, the heart love, and the crown loyalty.
The word Claddagh (Clá-dá) comes from the Irish word ‘an Cladach’, which means ‘the shore’. Claddagh is actually a fishing village in Galway where the River Corrib enters Galway Bay and back in the day it was just outside the city walls of Galway. It is one of the oldest fishing villages in Ireland and locals would have sold their catch at the fish market across the river at Spanish Arch.
The Claddagh symbol that we now know is the distinctive design of the famous Claddagh ring, which was traditionally used in the village of Claddagh as a wedding ring and in modern times is often used internationally as a wedding ring and also as an engagement or friendship ring.
