Irish Wedding Invitations with Metallic Cord Wrap and Claddagh Brass Charm $1.02
March 17, 2010
The Claddagh ring is a traditional Irish ring given as a token of love or worn as a wedding ring. The design and customs associated with it originated in the Irish fishing village of Claddagh, located just outside the city of Galway. The ring was first produced in the 17th century during the reign of Queen hands clasping a heart, and usually surmounted by a crown. The elements of this symbol are often said to correspond to the qualities of friendship (the hands), and loyalty (the crown). The expression which was associated with these symbols in the giving of the ring was: “With my two hands I give you my heart, and crown it with my loyalty.” Yet, the expression, “Let love and friendship reign forever” can be found as another meaning for the symbols.
Formal-Invitations.com offered a preview of their newest style featuring a metallic cord wrap embellished with this beautiful Irish symbol. These green wedding invitations incorporate the heavyweight Ivy background card and white overlay, wrapped with gold metallic cord and adorned with the Claddagh brass charm, pricing will be $1.02 each, with envelope.
