Celtic Jewelry |
Celtic Jewelry is most well known for the gorgeous Celtic Knotwork that is displayed on each piece. You can wear our Celtic Jewelry with your Medieval and Celtic outfits at the Renaissance Fair or with your everyday outfits. Aside from knotwork, we also have Celtic Crosses, Celtic Dragons and Serpents and the Celtic Clauddagh symbol. For the Celts, life was seen as a riddle, the "eternal journey" so to say. They believed in reincarnation: continuous rebirth until complete spiritual rebirth is achieved. These knots symbolized their maze through eternity, and their understanding of various spiritual levels in the search for purification of the soul. The cross symbolizes the bridge to other worlds and to higher energy and knowledge. This is realized by the vertical axis (celestial world) and horizontal axis (Earthly world). They are also considered solar symbols, sources of light and ultimate energy. The design of the heart held between two hands with a crown set on top is known as the Clauddagh. Reputed to originate in the Irish village of Clauddagh, across from Galway. Traditionally used as a ring, it was a family heirloom handed down as an engagement ring, friendship, or wedding ring. The symbolism is as such, heart as love, hands as friendship, and crown as fidelity. |
