Moreover, the symbol is rooted in an Irish legend that tells the tale of a young fisherman from the village of Claddagh.

At sea, he was captured by pirates and forced to work as a slave. All the while dreaming of his love back home, the young fisherman managed to seize a small piece of gold. He fashioned it into the Claddagh design, a heart clasped by two hands and adorned with a crown representing love, friendship, and loyalty. When the young fisherman was finally able to return to Ireland he presented this ring to his love who had remained true for all those years.
