Claddagh Pendant

Give this rhodium plated Claddagh pendant as a gift of love. Crafted in Ireland, the Claddagh echoes a tale of devotion retold over the centuries.

Famed for its beauty, colour and resistance no two pieces of Connemara Marble are the same. This makes this Celtic Claddagh pendant unique to you. A gift of love, crafted in Ireland. Once, a young Irish sailor was captured and sold into slavery. Far from his native land, he held the memory of his sweetheart deep in his heart. Years later, on his safe return to Ireland, his gift to her was a Claddagh ring. It was a token of his enduring love. “Cladach” is the Irish word for Claddagh and it traces its origins back to a coastal village in Co. Galway. For centuries the iconic hands, heart and crown on this design have represented friendship, love and loyalty. Whether you are choosing for yourself or someone you love the Claddagh can be worn by both men and women and for many different personal reasons.
