Silver Cladagh Rings
In recent years sterling silver has gained significant popularity among jewelry buyers. While silver jewelry was more or less a mass volume, low quality option a few years ago, it has now developed into a segment where quality truly matters. Style savvy jewelry lovers are today spending more on silver, and do not mind paying the price for quality merchandise. The popularity of the Claddagh365 cladagh silver ring has almost doubled in the last 2 years, future prospects appear bright too. Mentioning the cladagh ring brings up visions of an ancient jewel one that, has a touching story behind it. The first cladagh ring was made about four centuries ago by an Irish slave named Robert Joyce. The young man was a fisherman before, he was captured on the high seas by pirates and sold as a slave to a wealthy goldsmith. The important thing we need to understand about Robert is that, he was neither a professional goldsmith nor a talented jewelry designer. If that was the case then, how did the interesting features get incorporated into the jewel - this is exactly what tells us a touching story. Observe the image of the CR-002 Moonstone Cladagh Ring, you will immediately notice the heart in the center of the ring, on top of the heart is a crown and two hands extend out to hold the heart.
Robert Joyce wished to accomplish two objectives by making the ring. The first was to keep himself in a positive frame of mind, this was not easy considering the harsh conditions of slavery and the mental agony of being separated from his beloved. Robert had one more important objective to make the ring, through this jewel he wished to convey his true love and feelings for her. After conducting a thorough study of the cladagh ring, the experts at Claddagh365 uncovered the meaning held in the three main features of the ring. The heart signified love for his beloved, the crown expressed his loyalty to her and hands symbolized togetherness. When we mentioned that, the cladagh sterling silver ring is a very meaningful jewel we meant that, it was because of the interpretation of the three essential features of the ring. Claddagh365 crafts both gold and 925 silver cladagh rings with fine craftsmanship and handpicked gemstones. Many jewelry buyers find it hard to believe that, the cladagh sterling silver ring can have the same quality of gem and workmanship as the gold ring. Unfortunately jewelers have always treated silver jewelry as a second rate segment of the industry. Low weight, flimsy construction, low quality gems and terrible craftsmanship is how you can best describe most of the 925 silver jewelry in the market. You will be pleased to know that, we provide the same quality of material, craftsmanship and gems for the gold or 925 silver cladagh ring.
