Thread Name: Folklore: All About the Claddagh Ring
Subject: RE: Help: Right way to wear a claddagh ring?
I have NO idea what the *right* way is to wear a claddagh ring even though I've had one on my right hand for the last 10 years. My ring is gold with the hands clasping a garnet heart and a teeny, tiny diamond resting over the top of that. I love my ring because to me, it symbolizes a very deep friendship with someone who passed away. My left hand (and all the rings) belongs to my husband but the right hand will forever have a place for my best friend. The stones are representative of our birthdays, his in January and mine in April. I wear it with the tip of the heart facing my knuckles.
