Oval Claddagh Jewelry Box
This ancient craft of pewter making was revived in Ireland by Mullingar Pewter in 1974. Most of the pieces are still made in the traditional way by specially trained men and women in the old casting methods. These skills take years to acquire. About the only thing which has changed in pewter manufacturing is the composition of the materials. Today, the raw materials consist of 95% tin with the balance made up of copper and antimony. The products are guaranteed lead-free and quite safe to use for all kinds of food and drink.
This beautiful jewelry box has an antique feel to it and is adorn with the Claddagh on top. This velvet lined box is oval shaped with filigree design on top. Dating back to the sixteenth century, the Claddagh symbolizes friendship (hands), love (heart) and loyalty (crown). The Claddagh is the perfect way to let her know how special she is to you...a classic piece to hold her most special pieces.
