Sorry if this reaches you after you have gotten sucked into that ring
Thang.....believe me if something is important for you I would be the last
to take it away. Please treasure it once you have it...HOWEVER... If you
are thinking of getting anyone a Claddagh ring please, please stop now and
reconsider! If you are thinking of asking for a Claddagh ring....Hold on a
moment.....take a look at a few fine celtic jewelry collections from modern
contemporary artists. We are living in a time where there is more really
good celtic art than even existed in celtic times! Seek out these
innovative artists trying to keep alive making really good celtic rings
before they are done in by the jingoistic masss marketing of the claddagh.
Ok if you look at all the alternatives and dont find something else fine
(have your eyes check but I cant argue).
To find out all about the claddagh ring go here:

Be knowlegable of the folklore of the ring or suffer constant shame and
humiliation as others chuckle behind their backs!

Gosh is it Conrad time already? I must start hanging Claddagh rings on
the tree earlier this year!

Why would people chuckle behind "their backs"? I worry about them
chuckling behind my back.

Wait till you see my Yuletide Claddadh nose ring. It's so heavy I've
been catching my big toe in my unnaturally lengthened septal loop.
