Shamrock necklaces are the perfect way to wish someone luck on their first day of a new job or some other major life changing event. There are two types of shamrock necklaces to consider. The first are necklaces that contain actual shamrocks, or four-leaf clovers, in them. The second are pendants that are stylized shamrocks made of gemstones or metal. There are beautiful selections in both categories. Take a look below at a beautiful example of an Irish necklace that contains an actual shamrock.

I love the authenticity of including a real shamrock in a shamrock necklace. It’s not that I believe in leprechauns at the bottom of a rainbow with a pot of gold, but Celtic myths are so rich. Wear this around your neck or attach it to your purse on St. Patrick’s Day as a lucky charm. Irish folklore believes that the first three leaves of a shamrock or 4-leaf clover stand for hope, faith, and love. It is the fourth leaf that brings us luck. My favorite shamrock pendants, also contain a heart in the design. The shamrock necklace above encases a real shamrock in a clear heart pendant. You don’t have to be of Irish heritage to love wearing a lovely piece of jewelry such as this – either on your neck or embellishing your clutch purse.
