Irish Jewelry for Women & Men
The Irish Jewelry Company is a family-owned Irish jewelry store founded in 2006 by designer Jennifer Derrig. We make Claddagh rings, Celtic cross necklaces, Trinity knot jewelry, Celtic wedding rings and meaningful Irish gifts in sterling silver and 10K and 14K gold. Every design is built around a real Irish symbol and the story behind it.
Irish jewelry is jewelry built on the symbols of Ireland: the Claddagh from the fishing village of Claddagh in Galway, the Celtic knotwork of the Book of Kells, the Trinity knot, the shamrock and the Celtic cross. Each one carries a meaning, so a piece of Irish jewelry is rarely just an accessory. It is a way of saying love, loyalty, faith, family or home without having to say it out loud.
Most of our customers are shopping for someone else. The most-loved Irish jewelry for women in our store is the Claddagh ring, followed by Celtic Mothers Knot jewelry for mothers and daughters, Celtic cross necklaces for confirmations and milestones, and Irish rings for women that stack with a wedding band. For men, our men's Celtic jewelry includes heavy knot rings, crosses and Claddagh bands.
Many couples come to us for their wedding. Our Celtic wedding rings and Celtic engagement rings carry Irish tradition into one of the biggest days of your life, in silver, gold, platinum and diamond. Shop all collections

Irish Jewelry FAQ
What is Irish jewelry?
Irish jewelry is jewelry designed around the symbols of Ireland, including the Claddagh, Celtic knots, the Trinity knot, the shamrock and the Celtic cross. Each symbol carries a meaning such as love, faith, family or eternity, which is why Irish jewelry is so often given as a gift for weddings, birthdays, milestones and heritage celebrations.
What does the Claddagh ring mean?
The Claddagh ring shows two hands holding a crowned heart. The hands stand for friendship, the heart for love and the crown for loyalty. It comes from the fishing village of Claddagh in Galway, Ireland, and how you wear it signals whether your heart is taken. It is the most popular Irish jewelry gift in the world.
What is the best Irish jewelry gift for a woman?
The most popular Irish jewelry gifts for women are Claddagh rings for love and friendship, Celtic Mothers Knot pendants for mothers and daughters, Celtic cross necklaces for faith and milestones, and Trinity knot jewelry for lasting love. Choose the symbol that matches the relationship, then the metal she wears most, sterling silver or gold.
Is Celtic jewelry the same as Irish jewelry?
Not exactly. Celtic jewelry uses the knotwork, spirals and crosses shared by the Celtic nations, including Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Irish jewelry includes Celtic designs but also symbols that belong only to Ireland, such as the Claddagh, the shamrock and the Irish harp. Most Irish jewelry is Celtic, but not all Celtic jewelry is Irish.
Who designs The Irish Jewelry Company's jewelry?
Our collections are designed by founder Jennifer Derrig, a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. She founded The Irish Jewelry Company in 2006 as a family-owned business on Long Island and has been designing Celtic and Irish jewelry since the 1990s, drawing on frequent trips to Ireland.
Do you offer free shipping and gift wrap?
Yes. The Irish Jewelry Company offers free standard shipping on US orders over $250 and free gift wrap on every order. We also ship worldwide and offer easy exchanges and returns. Ring sizing help and customer support come from our own family-owned team, not an outside call center.
