This Contemporary Claddagh Silver Pendant is very elegant. This is a present day design incorporating the heart and crown elements of the Claddagh symbol held between two rose gold plated bars. The crown and the heart are also illuminated with clear Cubic Zirconia stones.
The Claddagh is the most internationally recognized symbol of Irish heritage. It is also one of the most popular symbols in Irish jewelry.
Legend has it that Richard Joyce, a Galway native, was captured and sold to slavery in North Africa. However, Joyce found himself slave to a Turkish silversmith, and from his master he learned and excelled at the craft.
After 14 years Joyce was finally released. He returned to Galway where his sweetheart awaited him. But while in captivity, he had made what we now know as the Claddagh Ring especially for her.
The Claddagh heart symbolizes love, the hand’s friendship and the crown loyalty. Celebrate your Irish Heritage with this classic design that will always remind you of your most treasured moment. Or make it the perfect gift with so much meaning for someone you love.
This gorgeous Contemporary Claddagh Silver Pendant would add that gentle touch of Irishness to any occasion. We also have plenty of Claddagh earrings that would match well with the pendant.
This pendant would be the perfect gift for a friend or loved one.
