Celtic Tradition
Celtic symbols have been used in Irish Art Over thousands of years. Traditionally they have been used as inlays and in wirework in Celtic Crosses, shamrocks, harps and other symbols associated with Ireland. In more modern times they have been used in designs with fish & animals and semi-precious stones.
Trinity Knot
Although the origins of the Trinity Knot can be traced back to pagan times it later was used in ancient Celtic Art and religious manuscripts such as Book of Kells.
In modern times it has become synonymous to Christians as the symbol of the Holy Trinity (Father, Son & Holy Spirit)
Along with the Claddagh it is a hugely popular design in modern Irish Jewelry.
Celtic Snake
Inspired by ancient Irish Celtic Art this ring has particular resonance as legend has it that St Patrick banished snakes from Ireland and in fact Ireland does not have any native snakes.
The snake is a symbol of never ending life and rebirth.
