Connemara Marble

Connemara Marble originates from the Connemara region on the rugged west coast of Ireland. With its “forty shades of green” this 900 million year old marble produces a truly unique piece of jewelry as no two shades of this green marble are exactly the same.

Story of the Shamrock

St Patrick in the fifth century used the shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity to the Celts . Holding up the shamrock he was able to describe how three entities could also be one. Since then the shamrock has been considered the unofficial national flower of Ireland.  Occasionally, a shamrock is found with four leaves, a four leaf clover. These are rare and considered to bring great luck to the finder in respect, love, health, and abundance. The shamrock is said to bring mystical powers such as healing of venomous bites and serve as warnings to approaching storms. The shamrock is associated with Ireland more than any other symbol.
