These aren't claddagh rings but are celtic. There's a huge range and reasonable prices as well.

You should keep in mind that white gold is not as durable as yellow gold - especially if worn with another ring, the white gold will wear off over time and expose the yellow gold under it (white gold is just a plating ontop of yellow gold)

You can get them re-coated but this is added expense for something you are planning to wear for your lifetime.

The only way round this is platinum but at considerable more expense... just incase you didnt know :hug:

Wouldn't have thought you could wear another ring with a claddagh just because of the design.
I agree with Rox but as you are on a budget then white gold is prob for the best, I have had white gold jewellery for a lot of years and it is just fine and doesn't dull like platinum

Or she could go for yellow gold.

White gold is fine and i wasnt suggesting platinum as def out of budget, i just know that if its to be worn everyday, especially a ring then it will need re plating over time to keep it looking good.
