These Green Stone Claddagh Earrings have Celtic knot-work along a circle with a Claddagh symbol at the bottom.
The Claddagh is one of the most popular symbols in Irish jewelry. Legend has it that a Galway native was captured and sold to slavery in North Africa. It was during that time that he learned silversmithing, which he excelled at.
He was released years later and returned to Galway, where he found his love still waiting for him. It was for her that he created the Claddagh- the heart symbolizing love, the hands friendship, and the crown loyalty.
