Irish Claddagh Ring w/ Amethyst CZ Gemstone - Sterling Silver - R-8172-AM

Sterling Irish Claddagh Ring w/ Amethyst CZ - Silver 925. The traditional wedding ring of the Irish since the 17th Century, the Royal Claddagh ring is today worn by people all over the world as a universal symbol of love, loyalty, friendship and fidelity, and of their Irish heritage. For love, we wear the heart. In friendship, we wear the hands. And, in loyalty and lasting fidelity: we wear the Royal Claddagh crown. Worn on the right hand, heart facing out, the ring tells that the wearer's heart has yet to be won; while worn on right hand with the heart facing inwards declares that the wearer's heart is already taken. Finally, when true love is requited, the Claddagh ring is traditionally worn on the left hand as a wedding or commitment ring with the heart facing inwards - my heart turned out 'til your love turned it 'round; 'til from my right to my left, with this ring I thee wed.  This item is made of high quality sterling silver.
