Claddagh Earrings
One of Ireland's unique treasures, the "Claddagh" is a symbol of Love, Friendship and loyalty. The Claddagh Ring belongs to a widespread group of finger rings called Fede or "Faith rings" which date from Roman times. They are distinguished by having the bezel cut or cast in the form of two clasped hands, symbolising faith, trust or "plighted troth". Fede rings were popular in the Middle Ages throughout Europe, and there are examples from this time in the National Museum of Ireland, in Dublin. The "Claddagh" ring displays two hands clasping a heart surmounted by a crown.

The Coin Strike History
The coin mint, an industrialized tool of the Renaissance era, revolutionized the process of coin making by significantly enhancing its accuracy over the previous hand-hammered technique. Michael Stewart, inspired by Leonardo da Vinci's mechanical descriptions, designed and constructed the "drop hammer" coin mint, a true marvel of engineering. The machine utilized precise amounts of accelerated gravity to operate, where a 150 lb. hammer was raised to a towering height of 9 feet. Once in position, the coins were positioned between two dies, and the machine would strike them with a jaw-dropping force of 40 tons, a testament to the machine's incredible power and precision.
