Pewter Claddagh Wedding Bell

Pewter Wedding Bell - Claddagh (5 1/2" high)  The chime of bells is thought to keep evil spirits away, restore harmony if a couple spirits away, restore harmony if a couple is fighting, and also remind a couple of their wedding vows.  Giving a bell as a gift has become an Irish tradition.

The design is that of the Claddagh taken from the famous love symbol designed in the town of Claddagh, Co. Galway by Richard Joyce back in the year 1689. The design is often used for wedding rings as it is based on the ring that Richard made for his bride to be. The symbolisms are "hands for friendship", "heart for love" and "crown for loyalty".
