The ring was made in Algeria 😉 not irish as you said but algerian ring origin

[@kianukasceltictales3403]

The Claddagh Ring has origins in Algeria? Where did you hear that? That's actually the first time I hear that 😅. I'll look into it 😉.

[@kianukasceltictales3403]

Ok 😂 that bothered me so I'll looked it up. Well, the (irish) protagonist in the story of how the ring came to be was enslaved by algerian pirates and made the ring before he was able to go back to Ireland, so technically I presume that means it was made in Algeria but at least according to legend by an irish guy. So you're right👍, but I still give it to the Irish 😋😇 But thank you very much for pointing that out 😊

@@kianukasceltictales3403 The sea held many terrors, but the Barbary pirates of North Africa ranked highly. They ransacked European ships, claiming their crew and passengers as well as their cargo as booty. Sometimes they even raided on land, as they had in Baltimore, County Cork. For there was a thriving trade in slaves on the Barbary Coast. Like many before him, Richard was brought to Algiers and sold. But he was more fortunate than most, because he was taken in by a goldsmith and taught his trade. On his arrival at Algiers, he was purchased by a wealthy Turk, who followed the profession of a goldsmith, and who, observing his slave, Joyce, to be tractable and ingenious, instructed him in his trade, in which he speedily became an adept. - History of the Town and County of Galway, James Hardiman (1820)
