Mo Anam Cara

Language is a powerful tool. With the Irish language, we can communicate history and heritage, as well as a deep-rooted culture. Ultimately, we can convey the very real meaning behind our feelings with a single phrase.

History of "Soul Friends"

Saint Patrick is well known for his conversion of the pagan Irish to Christianity. One concept Patrick may have introduced, or inherited from the ancient Celts, is the "Anam Cara", or "soul friend". The Celts believed that a soul existed outside the body and that when two individuals bond, their souls would mingle. Including "Mo" or "My" in Irish turns the phrase "Mo Anam Cara" into "My Soul Friend" or "My Soul Mate".

Personalized Treasure

Choosing to mark a special anniversary or engagement with a piece of jewelry inscribed with Mo Anam Cara is a thoughtful decision. The phrase represents the significance of the relationship between two individuals—a celebration of love in the centuries-old Irish language.
