The history of the Claddagh ring dates back to the early 16th century, to the village of Claddagh in Co. Galway. Legend is that a fishing boat from the village was captured by pirates and the crew taken. Richard Joyce was to have been married that week but as one of the captured crew, he was sold into slavery where he learned the art of goldsmithing. He was released many years later and returned home to find the love of his heart. She too had waited for him and he made her a ring. The heart stands for love, the hands for friendship and the crown for loyalty. The Claddagh ring has become very popular all over the world, worn by all as a symbol of friendship, love and loyalty. Wearing the ring with the heart pointing factory away from your own heart denotes that you are "available" but worn with the heart pointing towards your own heart, means that you are "taken"! The Celtic Knot symbolizes eternity.
