Since Saint Patrick’s Day is on the horizon, why not honor your Irish ancestry by treating yourself (or someone you care about) to a piece of Irish jewelry that features the Emerald Isle’s most recognizable motif…the three-leaf Shamrock…
In Pagan times, Saint Patrick began a crusade to bring the Irish to Christ – he used the trefoil Shamrock as an example of the Holy Trinity.
According to Ireland’s patron saint, each of its three segments illustrated the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. By demonstrating the presence of God in nature, Saint Patrick converted many Pagans to Christianity.
Today, the humble Shamrock still reigns as Ireland’s most identifiable symbol. It appears on logos, flags, and lots of Saint Patrick’s Day paraphernalia.
If you are looking for a more sophisticated way to say, “Kiss Me, I’m Irish”, a piece of handcrafted Shamrock jewelry created in Ireland itself can be a great expression of your roots…
We’ve put together a list of the Top three Shamrock designs for this Saint Paddy’s Day: each of them is lovingly crafted, with exquisite attention to detail…and each is also assayed at Dublin Castle. For true authenticity and beauty, these charming styles are second to none:
3.) The Diamond and 14k Shamrock Pendant –
This lovely Shamrock pendant offers style that is so wearable…whether you opt for a jeans-and-t-shirt ensemble, or dressier attire, it will always look appropriate…
To give this design added whimsy and charm, each leaf of the Shamrock has been crafted into a delicate heart-shape; as well, a row of shimmering pave diamonds decorates the curving stem.

2.) Shamrock Charm – Part Of The Tara’s Diary Collection –
This stunning Shamrock charm combines ancient symbols with expert craftsmanship – the Shamrock is gently suspended from a setting that features a mystical Celtic spiral.
For centuries, the spiral has appeared on stone artifacts, Irish and Celtic metalwork, and other treasures of the Irish people. Its curving lines represent life-force and the endless journey that is birth, death, and spiritual rebirth…the spiral will always be an illustration of eternity…
A pretty green gemstone also adds color and dimension to this unforgettable Shamrock design.
