Celtic Knot Rings
Celtic Knot Rings, featuring continuous loops that have no start or finish, are believed to represent eternity, whether it's loyalty, faith, friendship, or love. Celtic knots, also known as 'endless knots' or 'mystic knots,' are complete loops with no start or finish. They signify the interconnectedness of life and eternity.
Today, there are numerous designs and styles of Celtic Knot Rings available, suitable for every occasion and personality. The rings are not just a symbol of Celtic heritage; they're also a popular choice for those seeking unique, meaningful jewelry.
Claddagh Rings
The history of Claddagh rings is deeply rooted in Irish tradition. Named after the ancient fishing village of Claddagh, near Galway, Ireland, these rings feature two hands holding a heart adorned with a crown.
Traditionally, the way one wears a Claddagh ring also holds meaning. If worn on the right hand with the heart pointing outward, it symbolizes that the wearer's heart is free. If worn on the right hand with the heart pointing inward, it indicates that the wearer's heart is taken. When worn on the left hand with the heart pointing inward, it signifies that the wearer is married.
Celtic Engagement Rings and Wedding Bands
Celtic Engagement Rings often combine traditional symbols like knots and spirals with beautiful gemstones. The intertwining lines of Celtic designs, symbolizing eternity, are a perfect metaphor for the joining of two lives in marriage.
Celtic Wedding Bands carry similar symbolism, and often match the design elements of the engagement ring. The most common styles feature endless knotwork, symbolizing an eternal bond, and Claddagh symbols, representing love, friendship, and loyalty.
Spiral Rings and Triskelion Rings
Spiral Rings, featuring one of the oldest symbols in Celtic art, represent life, death, and rebirth. This spiral, or helix, is often associated with the cosmos and natural evolution, symbolizing growth and development.
The Triskelion, or triple spiral, stands for various trinities — past, present, future; mother, father, child; and life, death, rebirth, to name a few. Rings featuring the Triskelion design are perfect for those who resonate with these spiritual concepts and appreciate Celtic mythology.
