Inspired by traditional Claddagh rings, hands of loyalty sleeved with hazel leaves clasp a frame surrounded by mystical foxgloves, on a graduated, textured chain. The frame of this necklace and the hanging heart pendant are engraved with the Irish words Dathú, Grá, Brid and Bandia. This piece comes on an adjustable 16-18” chain, and is handmade in sterling silver in our London workshop, and plated with 22ct Fairmined gold.
We are proud to present a collaborative collection with
Irish author, academic and broadcaster,
Emma Dabiri. We joined forces with Emma,
who took us on a jewellery journey through
Irish culture, culminating in a
celebration of feminine empowerment.
Our starting point was to create a contemporary twist on the
traditional Claddagh ring, and we began by exploring its symbolism.
Alongside this, it was important to us to honour Emma as a writer,
and explore the folk beliefs which are woven throughout the Irish
language.
From here we looked at Celtic mythology and the intricate
illustrations of Jim Fitzpatrick depicting Irish myths and legends -
often celebrating Goddesses rather than Gods.
Whether celebrating Irish heritage, folklore, your connection to the
natural world or indeed your personal inner Goddess, this is a
capsule collection to both inspire and empower.
A Claddagh ring comprises three symbolic motifs, two hands holding a heart with a crown. The hands symbolise friendship, the heart represents love and the crown is loyalty. Traditionally, the position you placed a Claddagh ring on your hand would indicate your relationship status.
