Inspired by connecting with her homeland, Sam’s new pieces are a clean, modern reinterpretation of the traditional elements of the Claddagh ring. Showcased across three designs - one 9ct. yellow gold pinky ring and two over-sized sterling silver rings - each piece is created with Sam’s design technique which unfolds a familiar representation of Irish jewellery in an all-new aesthetic.
