-------------------------------In 17th century Ireland when a man fell in love with a woman he carved a wooden goblet to present to her. He lovingly crafted the goblet, with two captive rings, all from a single piece of timber. These two rings symbolised love and unity. At their wedding feast, they both drank from the goblet and thereafter kept it in a safe place. For so long as the rings remained unbroken, they would love each other forever. -------------------------------Céad Míle Fáilte!
