Claddagh Story

Dating back to over 4 centuries, the claddagh story began in a small Irish village in Ireland - the village was named Claddagh. A young man by the name of Robert Joyce lived in the village with his beloved. A fisherman by profession Robert would go sailing on the high seas with his co-fishermen each morning. It was one eventful day that changed the destiny of the young man and started the claddagh story. 

On that morning, pirates attacked the fishing boat in which Robert and his friends were sailing. The fishermen were captured and sold as slaves to various businessmen in the community. Robert Joyce was 'sold' to a local goldsmith. Forced to learn the trade from his master, the young man would often think of his beloved. The harsh life of a slave seemed more bearable than, the thought of being separated from his beloved. 

Historians have keenly studied the history of the claddagh ring. Kaisilver experts spent months reading historic records and talking to professors in Ireland. Besides getting a first hand account of the claddagh story, the learning process also ensured that, Kaisilver claddagh rings retain all the essential features and meaning of the first ring made 4 centuries ago. Let's get back and continue the interesting and touching story. 

As the days went by Robert Joyce found it increasingly difficult to focus on his work. It was then that he decided to make something for his beloved, a treasure that he would gift her when he was a free man once again. The young man started making a ring for her, a jewel that would showcase his true feelings.. 

A few years later Robert's dream came true, he was freed from slavery. The young man rushed back to his village, carefully securing the ring - he started to search for his beloved. The most touching part of the claddagh ring story happens when,  Robert Joyce finds that the woman in his life was actually waiting for him after all these years. The couple embraced and Robert gave her the ring - villagers had a chance to see the interesting features of the ring. The couple were married shortly after and set up their wonderful family in the village. 

The story of the claddagh ring would never be complete without, understanding the features of the ring. The jewel came to be known as the claddagh ring - quite obviously named after the Irish village in which Robert and his beloved lived.
