Claddagh ring meaning:
Medieval Romans also had rings with hands, but they were joined instead of holding a heart. These were often offered as an engagement ring or wedding ring. They called their rings fede rings.
The design is from the 1600's. The design was created in Ireland in a fishing village called Claddagh from the area of Galway. The design is comprised of a heart representing love, hands representing friendship and a crown representing loyalty.
