    Purchased a gold claddagh! It was everything I dreamed of since I was 15 and now 37. Rushed in as they were closing and staff was friendly and not pushy. Brought along 2 tour friends that were interested in the story behind the ring and made a purchase as well.

    There are so many stores here that sell Claddagh rings and they are all geared towards tourists in this little area. I'm convinced that locals do not shop in this cobblestoned touristy place for their jewelry. The store itself is small but cute, kind of what you would see in a Christmas movie. Despite the probable overpricing, I am giving this place 4 stars because it is the only store in the cobblestoned Latin quarter that has kids sizes smaller than a size 4. We must have went to about half a dozen stores (or more), at which point I didn't even care what the price was.

    We stumbled upon Thomas Dillon by happenstance, but it worked out perfectly: despite being almost 100% Irish, my mom has never owned a Claddagh ring. She initially wanted one with a stone, but even those with a little chip ran well above €500. She decided on an 18k solid Claddagh ring (approximately €450) and was eventually helped by a woman in the shop. She had to try on several rings, and it took a while since she didn't want rose gold, which the woman kept suggesting. The woman wasn't particularly friendly nor enthusiastic, but did help with sizing (Mom's fingers were swollen at the time), suggesting she go only a half size smaller, versus the full size smaller Mom thought she should get. That ended up being a very sound recommendation! Mom loves her ring because it came from the ORIGINAL Thomas Dillon, and because the band is much thicker than you find in the States. She was completely satisfied with the purchase and I know she's going to love the ring for years to come.

    according to wiki - "The Claddagh ring (Irish: fáinne Chladaigh) is a traditional Irish ring given as a token of love or worn as a wedding ring. The design and customs associated with it originated in the Irish fishing village of Claddagh, located just outside the city of Galway. The ring was first produced in the 17th century during the reign of Queen Mary II, though elements of the design date to the late Roman period."... T. Dillion are the original makers of the Claddagh Ring and also the oldest jewellers in Ireland. Thomas Dillon's Claddagh Gold was established in 1750. The store also has a museum and you can look at all of the moldings and even the world's smallest claddagh ring! also on display is a small claadaugh box of princess grace kelly's! great stop if you're shopping in galway's shopping district and a must purchase if you're looking to get something from the original claddagh ring makers!

    I had seen versions of them all over over, but knew that I wanted my Claddagh Ring to have special meaning to me.
