The Story of the Claddagh
The story of the Claddagh is one of the most beautiful sentiments to come from the Irish culture. The story began about 5 centuries ago in the fishing village of Claddagh, just outside the city of Galway.
Many of them from the village would each day go to the sea, just as they do today, to catch food for their families and others in the village. It was dangerous to go out into the bay, some days the sea was high. Other days the current was strong. But worst of all , some days, there were pirates. One fateful day, a young man was at sea with other men from his family in their small boat when suddenly a Spanish pirate ship appeared. The men knew they were doomed. The pirates captured the men from Claddagh and brought them to the far off North Coast of Africa and sold them into slavery for what would surely be the rest of their lives.
But the story can't end there... Richard, the youngest of those captured, was the most distraught. All men had left loved ones behind, however, Richard had only just come to know what true love was, and now, to have it stole away! Well, the years passed. Some of the men died. Others accepted their fate. But young Richard yearned each day as he toiled in slavery to return to his village and his beloved far away. Each day he stole a small speck of gold from his wretched Masters goldsmith shop where he was forced to tend the fires. And after a number of years, he was finally able to fashion a ring. He hoped and prayed that someday he would be able to bring the ring to his true love. It is not really know now whether young Richard escaped or earned his release from slavery. In any case, the day finally came and Richard began his long journey to the island in the North Atlantic known to us as Ireland and to Richard as home.
When Richard finally completed his journey he was overjoyed to learn that love was true and that his Colleen had prayed and waited faithfully for his return. It was on this day that he presented her with the ring that now is known in every corner of the world as the Claddagh Ring, for there is no sentiment more beautiful than the one Richard carried home with him in his heart and we celebrate in jewelry of all types.
The heart symbolized the love he yearned to share... the crown his undying loyalty... and the hands, friendship because it is the foundation of love and loyalty and holds the two together. From that young man's life we all can take comfort that the goodness in one's heart can always conquer the evil of others. Evil is no match for the powers of love, loyalty and friendship. Pirates no longer sail the seas around Richard's island, but every day men leave the shores to fish knowing that they will, if the sea is not high and the currents not too strong, return to the ones who love them.

Hello Ken. I left a voicemail on your testimonial line, but I also wanted to e-mail you. Thank you for getting my ring to me before Thanksgiving. I know that was ahead of your schedule, and I am very grateful for your efforts in getting my order out so quickly. I'm sure it will create more business for you as I show it off at our family gathering this Thursday.
It is a beautiful ring, and again, thank you for all of your help.
My best,
Sean

I wanted to tell you how much we loved the rings. It was our 22nd anniversary and my husband was so surprised. I had ask our priest to renew our vows and the ceremomy was beautiful. You were right when you said that you have very fine jewelry. I know that we will be ordering from you again since I loved several of the pieces in the pamphlet that you sent with the rings. Thank you again for your professionalism and for the quick response in getting the rings to us

I wanted to thank you so much for being quick with shipment. You actually send exactly what I saw on the Internet. I was so glad and amazed when I received the package. I'm just hoping that my boyfriend would love it the way I do. The ring is just amazing. I love it so much. Thank you again so much for everything.

Ken, This morning I received the ring, much to my surprise. You are a true Gentleman. I appreciate the lengths you went to in order for me to receive the ring today, engraved. I can\'t tell you how impressed I am. We don\'t find this kind of service here in the States anymore, so it\'s quite rare for me to send a note like this. You have a customer for life and I will certainly recommend you to anyone I know looking for Celtic jewelry. Best Regards, Mike Mahedy
