The Story of 1916: Inspiring Mise Éire

Now known as the Mise Éire ("I am of Ireland") Collection, the idea for this collection originally came about back in 2016, on the centenary of the 1916 Easter Rising.
Hearing all the stories of 1916, I was inspired to create a new collection inspired by the 1916 Rising (Rebellion) in Ireland, when a few fiercely patriotic, idealistic warriors attempted to overthrow the chains of 800 years of English rule.
The Easter Rising of 1916 was a failure in military terms, but it inspired Irish people to come together, rise up, face the might of an Empire, and ultimately succeed in their goal to become a Nation once again.
Shamrock - Ireland, the right to our own Nation.
Lily - The symbol of peace and the end of fighting on Irish soil.
Heart - The love that burned in their hearts for Ireland.
These three elements come together at the base of the pendant to form the Newgrange Tri-Spiral, one of the oldest symbols of Ireland. Its meaning is myriad, here it represents life, death, and rebirth, as Ireland was reborn as a nation once again in 1916. 100 years a Nation!!

(Peace Lily Ring, Rebirth of a Nation Ring & the Fire of Freedom Ring.)
All available in sterling silver or with 14ct gold elements.
As time went by, the Mise Éire 1916 collection became known simply as
Mise Éire (Mish-a Air-a) - 'I am of Ireland'
Ireland, Éire, Éireann, Hibernia, Emerald Isle, Land of Saints and Scholars, the many names of this ancient land. She has been the inspiration for great achievements, by a people fiercely proud to be her children.
