What does a Claddagh mean as a christening gift?

A Claddagh christening gift symbolises love (heart), loyalty (crown) and friendship (hands) — three values to guide the child through life. Gifting a Claddagh piece at a christening is a deeply Irish tradition, expressing the wish that the child will always be surrounded by love and loyal friendship.

Are Irish christening gifts suitable for non-religious occasions?

Absolutely. Many of our christening gifts — including Aran baby blankets, Connemara marble keepsakes and personalised silver frames — are equally beautiful as new baby gifts or naming ceremony presents, regardless of religious background.
