The Claddagh Ring:
Timeless Symbol of Love and Friendship
—Jay Sailors
If you're looking for something to wear on your finger that has deep meaning, consider a claddagh ring. This popular Irish ring has a famous love story behind it: A young man was captured by a band of thieves. He was forced to work as a goldsmith. During this time, he secretly stole bits of gold to make a special ring. When he was freed many years later, he gave it to the woman he loved to show that he'd never stopped thinking about her.
Claddagh rings, which are usually made of silver or gold, are important in Irish culture. They're often passed down from mothers to daughters. The rings have two hands, which stand for friendship. The hands hold a heart with a crown on top to represent love and loyalty.
There are different positions for the ring that show that you are single, dating, set to be married, or married. But any way the ring is worn, it also represents a beautiful old expression—"Let love and friendship reign."
克拉達戒：永恆愛情與友誼的象徵
如果你正在找某個戴在手指上且具有深刻意義的東西，考慮一下克拉達戒吧！這款受歡迎的愛爾蘭戒指背後有一個著名的愛情故事：一名年輕男子被一幫盜賊抓走。他被迫當一名金匠。在這段期間，他暗地裡偷走一點金子，做成一只特別的戒指。當他多年後獲釋時，他把戒指送給鍾愛的女子，用來證明他從未停止想念她。
克拉達戒在愛爾蘭文化中很重要，通常是以銀或金製成。它們通常會從母親傳給女兒。這款戒指有兩隻手，代表著友誼。雙手環抱著一顆愛心，上方有一個皇冠用來代表愛情與忠誠。
戒指戴的位置不同表示你是單身、有約會對象、即將要結婚或是已婚。但是不管哪一種戴法，都代表一句美麗的古語——「讓愛情和友誼主宰一切」！
