Part I - The Claddagh Ring
Our fifth season of Gem Pursuit feat. Matthew Weldon & Alyce Ketcher is called 'Treasured Tokens: the Secret Language of Jewellery'
We go back to the origins of this extremely popular Irish symbol of love, loyalty and friendship to discover that its history stretches back a little further than one might think...
We try to separate fact from fiction in the story of who made the very first Claddagh ring.
And as always we'll have specific jewellery stories, collector's tips and a brand new (but unchanged) edition of Gem Trivial Pursuit.
Producer: Ross Hannon
Additional Research: Giulia Grasseschi
