Check out this lovely silver plated Claddagh designed pendant. A great gift for a loved one to show how much they mean to you. The Claddagh represents love loyalty and friendship. The hands represent friendship the heart represents love and the crown represents loyalty. The design and customs associated with it originated in the Irish fishing village of Claddagh located just outside the old city walls of Galway now part of Galway City. A lovely gift for a loved one and a nice reminder of the Emerald Isle!
