These Shanore 14KT Gold Vermeil Claddagh Earrings are stunning examples of Irish jewelry. Made in Ireland and hallmarked in Dublin, these drop earrings are a modern take on the classic Irish Claddagh and are the perfect gift for any cherished loved one, friend or family.
The Claddagh is one of the most popular symbols in Irish jewelry. Legend has it that in the 17th century, a Galway native was captured by pirates and sold into slavery. During his time as a slave he was sold to a wealthy goldsmith, who taught him the craft. When he was released years later and returned to Claddagh, Galway, he found his love still waiting for him. It was for her he created the Claddagh ring- the heart symbolising love, the hands friendship, and the crown loyalty.
