The Claddagh ring is a finger ring that comes from the Irish fishing village of Claddagh near Galway (County Galway). The ring shows two hands holding a heart with a crown. The heart symbolizes love, the hands friendship (trust) and the crown faithfulness (loyalty).
Since the late 20th century, the Claddagh ring has also enjoyed great popularity outside of Claddagh and Ireland. Depending on how and on which hand it is worn, it has a different meaning, whether in love, engaged, married....

The legend of the ring is really nice but also quite long. I'll give you the link here then you can read it on Wikipedia if you're interested.

These rings are sold everywhere in Gallway, whether in souvenir shops or jewellers.
