Of all the many different types of silver Irish jewelry for men we are going to make our focus in this post on the silver Irish jewelry for men Claddagh cross. The Claddagh cross makes a wonderful Claddagh cross pendant.

   What makes the Claddagh cross different from any other Irish cross pendant or any other type of cross pendant, the Claddagh cross pendant is a traditional cross with Irish symbolism and Celtic symbolism on the cross.
 
The circle that helps to make a cross and Celtic or Irish cross is, in this case a Irish Claddagh.  At the tope of the Claddagh and on the end caps,  the trinity knot is engraved. This is what make the cross pendant a Claddagh cross pendant.
