| Irish Claddagh promise rings are traditionally associated with love and couples, but are now also being used to symbolize friendship. A Claddagh promise ring consists of two hands holding a crowned heart, which has a multitude of interpretations. Friendship rings are often worn by young people, that is why Claddagh rings can be used without running the risk of others confusing their meaning.
Most friendship rings are simple. Friendship rings often avoid a design that may confuse them with an engagement ring or a wedding band, such as a solitary diamond or a plain gold band. Friendship rings can also be homemade with craft beads or similar materials, as the meaning of the ring has little to do with its quality.
Some groups of young people will purchase identical rings, to show their allegiance to their group, and set themselves apart from the rest of the crowd. A popular choice is the poesy ring – a simple silver band that has a motto stamped or engraved on the outside. Another popular show of friendship is the purchase of identical class rings, though these are less common in the UK than they are across the Atlantic.
When shopping for friendship rings online, consider whether it’s worth having bespoke pair of rings made for you and your best friend – often a silversmith working on custom jobs will have a very competitive price online.
So, symbolize your love and friendship with a pair of adorable friendship rings. Great idea for gifts and special occasions. Let that special someone know about your appreciation by friendship rings—there’s something for everyone!
