This mug is inspired by the history of the Claddagh which goes back over four hundred years when a Spanish goldsmith fell in love with a girl from the Claddagh village. He crafted the first Claddagh ring for her. Since then the Claddagh ring has become a token of love throughout the world. Its symbols of a heart under a crown held by hands represent love, friendship and loyalty. This pair of beautiful mugs are handcrafted and feature an embossed Claddagh design, symbolising love, friendship and loyalty.
