There’s never been much of a tradition of gift-giving on St. Patrick’s Day but we don’t see any reason why you shouldn’t buy something special this year for those you love!
Celebrate your shared Irish heritage and all the beautiful crafts that come with it.
Here are IrishCentral’s top five St. Patrick’s Day gifts:

If you're looking for a different size or color, you can find various Aran-designed throws for St. Patrick's Day available at Shamrockgift, ready to be shipped and make a perfect gift.
Claddagh Ring
Claddagh Ring at Solvar Jewelry
A Claddagh ring is a firm favorite present at any time of the year and we’ll use any excuse to gift this beautiful Irish tradition to any of our friends or family.
While there is a whole host of different Claddagh rings for men and women available, an exquisite stainless steel ring from Solvar Jewelry is particularly stunning. As well as a sparkling crystal that makes up the heart centerpiece in this ring, it, of course, features the iconic heart (love), crown (loyalty) and the hands (friendship).
