My wife and I want to get Claddagh Rings. She is having a pretty easy time finding one that she likes; however, I am having a hard time.

I work with my hands and dont want something that will get banged up and messed up quickly. I have seen Stainless Steel and Tungsten Carbide rings as well as Titanium.  The first two always end up fitting the budget, Titanium not so much.

Can anyone here etch/engrave/mill the Claddagh design into a blank ring? 

A lot of places etch rings but it looks sooo faded and light you can barely see it. Same with engraving.  I was hoping for a deep cut or super dark engraving.

Does anyone here do this kind of work?

I got mine at Casey's irish imports on center ridge in rocky river if you're over that way and feel like looking at what they have.  It's a deep cut pattern with darkening in the low spots.  I may have a guy i can refer you to for a custom one, i'd have to see if my dad still has his number.

Hey Pat! Good minds must think alike. My wife suggested that place as our first stop a week ago. Nice variety but only one or two did anything for me. I may stop in again to see them to see if they work out today/tomorrow.

Thats when I went online and went downhill from there. 

If you hear from the buddy your dad knows great, if not, no worries.

Thanks for the help
