Time to get your green on!​

Instead of going for the typical imagery you would see at St Patrick's Day, I am going to go with the Irish Claddagh ring which is the symbol of friendship, love and loyalty.

Claddagh is the name of a small fishing village just near Galway city in Ireland; from where the Claddagh ring origninated.  The Celtic Claddagh ring has three main elements – a heart, which is clasped by a pair of hands which, in turn, has crown above it.
The hands signify friendship, the heart embodies love, and the crown represents loyalty.

How one wears the Celtic Claddagh ring sends a message – wearing a Claddagh ring on the right hand with the design facing outward generally means that the wearer is not involved in a promising relationship. Placement on the right hand facing inward means that one has fallen in love. Wearing the Claddagh ring on the left hand with the design facing outward is meant to convey that the wearer is engaged, while having the Claddagh ring on the left hand facing in means one is married.

Wishing you all, friendship, love and loyalty.
