History of the Celtic Cross

The Celtic Cross first appeared in Ireland and Britain during the early middle ages, when missionaries were busy planting the roots of Christianity among Celtic populations. The style represents a unity of Christian and Celtic motifs - after all, early missionaries are largely responsible for recording and thus preserving many Celtic customs and artwork. This hybrid art form is known as insular art (from 'insula', the Latin for 'island'). 
The cross typically features a nimbus - a ring around the intersection - which also provides support. Its true origin is unknown, though some historians have suggested it may have originally represented the Roman sun god Invictus.  
The most famous surviving versions of these crosses are found in the monumental stone 'high crosses' erected from the 9th-12th centuries, which also depicted stylized Biblical scenes. Though insular art would later be overtaken by Romanesque art, it earned a comeback with the 'Celtic Revival' of the 19th Century, during a time when Ireland was rediscovering its heritage.

My wife and I purchased this necklace for our daughter's 37th birthday. Our daughter loved the necklace, so I bought one for my wife for Valentine's Day. Needless to say, my wife loved the necklace as well. My wife and our daughter will cherish this necklace for their entire life!

Sterling silver Trinity earrings

The Trinity knot earrings are beautiful! I highly recommend them. I also want to give Gifts of Ireland customer service 5 stars. When Aiden heard that I hadn’t recieved them yet he reached out to me. They had mailed them out to me in a fast time, but unfortunately once they reached the shores of the USA the package got bogged down in our postal system. I finally recieved it the day before my Christmas so all turned out well! Thank you again 😊
