A Celtic Bracelet

A Celtic bracelet is a bit of ancient symbolism artfully crafted into an intricate design based upon the Celtic knot or a variation. The Celtic design is intriguing and mysterious as it incorporates twisting and interlocking knots that seem to be endless, often in the vein of the moebius strip.

The Triskele Knot

The triskele knot is sometimes the principle design of a Celtic bracelet. This beautiful knot symbolizes the celtic elementals of land, sea and sky and is one of the several trinities of the Celtic belief system.

Unique Wedding Rings

One of the most popular forms of Celtic jewelry is a wedding ring. Many brides and grooms choose an infinity ring with Celtic knots that form an endless pattern around the ring. Another design is the morvan pierced wave knot. The word "morvan" means sea and the ring suggests the movement of waves around the endless surface of the ring.

Historical References

A popular Irish myth tells how Saint Patrick created the Celtic cross to aid in conversion of the Celts to Christianity. The Celtic cross blended the symbolism of the Celtic religion with the traditional cross of Christianity. As early as the 7th century stone Celtic crosses began to appear first across Ireland and then throughout Great Britain. The Celtic Revival in the middle of the 19th century added more interest in the use and display of Celtic crosses and jewelry. Even today, Celtic crosses and variations are popular designs for gravestones and statuary and Celtic jewelry offers some of the most unique and beautiful jewelry designs available.

Use

What to Look For

Pay close attention to the links and to the clasps. look for a good finish, sturdy design, and a positive action on the clasp.
