Ireland 5000 Years Ago

In Ireland the Great Elk wandered through the forests and mountains, it was a land of sweeping mists, gentle rain and  soft sunlight.

A land of pagan carvings and mysterious rituals.

A land when the soothing lilt of the harp floated over cool crystal lakes and rivers.

It was a time of Cu Chulainn and Queen Maeve and the Red Branch Knights.

This was, indeed the Celtic Twilight.

Today we have captured the very essence of that era.

Turf from that golden age has been excavated and hand carved to create our unique rang of turf ornaments

The Claddagh

The early history of the Claddagh goes back over 400 years to a small fishing village nestled on the shores of Galway Bay.

Here the Claddagh became a token of love, loyalty and friendship when a seafaring Spanish goldsmith fell in love with a girl from the Claddagh village and crafted the first Claddagh ring for her. Since that time the Claddagh has become a symbol of love throughout the world.

A Claddagh with the heart facing towards one's heart is seen as a proclamation of love and the heart facing away from one's heart is a sign of being uncommitted.

The crown is for loyalty, as a man promises to be loyal for life to his bethrothed. The hands represent friendship as one's partner in life is also ones best friend.
