Silver Irish Jewelry

STERLING SILVER IRISH CLOVER JEWELRY

It's been said there are more Irish people living out side of Ireland than the entire population of Ireland. Irish jewelry represents many different icons, the two most popular iconic symbols for Irish jewelry are the four leaf clover and the Claddagh.

  
This jewelry blog deals with the Irish Clover Jewelry aspect of Irish jewelry.

Clover jewelry and Shamrock jewelry are essential the same thing. In Ireland the three leaf clover is common and was, as legend would have it, a popular prop for Saint Patrick in his missionary work among the pagan Celts. Legend says St. Patrick used the three leaf clover to teach the Holy Trinity or the nature of the Christian Godhead. For some, the clover necklace is a religious necklace. For most though the clover necklace is simply a very Irish necklace.

 

For most the shamrock is eaither a 3 or 4 leafed clover. However, there is the "luck of the Irish" issue that is a very cultural thing for the Irish. Thus comes into play the 4 leaf clover necklace. The 4 leaf clover is a rare clover with four petals. Finding the 4 leaf clover is considered good luck.


Naturally, Clover jewelry must have a 4 leaf clover charm or pendant. This 4 Leaf Clover Jewelry page has a 4 leaf clover pendant and a 4 leaf clover necklace.
