FEATURED ITEM- CLADDAGH & CELTIC JEWELRY
FOR ST. PATRICK'S DAY
Claddagh and Celtic jewelry features timeless symbols of "love, Loyalty and friendship" reign supreme by Irish designers. Traditional Claddagh jewelry features a heart with a crown held between two hands. This design is found in rings, pendants, earrings and bracelets. The rings worn on the right hand with the heart pointing away from your own heart shows that your are open to love, with the heart pointing inward it denotes that your are spoken for, or on the left hand that you are happily married. Celtic jewelry stems from the ancient spiritual beliefs of the Celts using flowing knot work symbolizing eternal life and unending love. Each knot has it's own distinct meaning. Celtic endless wedding bands have no beginning and no end, intertwined in everlasting love.
BIRTHSTONE OF THE MONTH - AQUAMARINE OR BLOODSTONE
Although very different these two historic gems both promise courage to those born in March. Aquamarine one of the birthstones for March derives its name from "Ocean Water". Aqua, a member of the beryl family, is usually light to medium blue, sometimes with a greenish blue hue. Ancients believed aquamarine endowed the wearer with courage, happiness and increased intelligence. Our Aquas are found in Minas Gerais, Brazil or in Xinjiang, China. Dark green bloodstone another March birthstone is an opaque gem noted for the bright red flashes on it's surface and has been a favorite for men's jewelry since the middle ages.
