Claddagh
an Irish favorite
The Claddagh is Ireland's most romantic tradition. The hands signify soul friendship, the heart is true love and the crown is eternal loyalty. The design is a wish for friendship and love to prevail.
☙ More about the Claddagh❧
The Claddagh is a traditional Celtic Irish ring that represents love, loyalty, and friendship. The name comes from the village of Claddagh in County Galway, Ireland. The Claddagh ring consists of two hands holding a heart, with a crown on top. The hands represent friendship, the heart represents love, and the crown represents loyalty.
The Claddagh has been used as a wedding ring in Ireland for centuries. In Irish legend, the first Claddagh ring was made by a man named Richard Joyce for his fiancée who was taken captive by pirates and sold into slavery. After she was freed, they were married and lived happily ever after.
Today, the Claddagh is still a popular choice for wedding rings in Ireland. It is also worn as a fashion accessory or given as a gift to symbolize friendship, love, or loyalty.
☙ About the Artist ❧
-Kevin Dyer. Céad Míle Fáilte!! That means 100,000 welcomes in Irish. I am a self-taught artist who has been blessed with a full-time art career dating back to the 1970s. I am originally from the west coast but have lived in Georgia since the ’70s. I have experimented with almost every medium you can think of but found my place in making cast paper in the early ‘90s. I love almost every culture of antiquity but found my roots in Celtic-style art. I find most of my inspiration today from Celtic culture, nature, and fantasy. I spend most of my days at home making art. My daughter, Logan, works with me full-time, and every day I pass more and more of the skills I have learned down to her.
