What Can You Do With Sterling Silver Celtic Crosses?

What Can You Do With Sterling Silver Celtic Crosses?

Of all the Celtic jewelry, the two most popular genre's of Celtic jewelry are silver Celtic rings and Celtic cross necklaces. The Celtic Cross is the backbone of the Celtic cross jewelry genre. Some silver Celtic rings even feature the Celtic cross.

Celtic jewelry is such a large category of specialty jewelry that their are many different sub categories or genres of the Celtic jewelry like the already mentioned Celtic rings and the Celtic cross necklaces.




Celtic crosses, whether in Celtic cross pendant form or Celtic cross jewelry form are as diverse as the Celtic and Irish cultures and also as diverse of modern Celtic jewelry designers. The Celtic cross is in essence a traditional Christian cross with a circle at the intersection of the two lines.



However the Celtic cross have evolved a long way from that simplistic definition. Now days the Celtic cross has other elements of Celtic knot work and Irish icons depending on the Celtic cross.

Celtic crosses add a lot of additional symbolism to the cross. The circle around the intersection is symbolic for eternity. The Trinity knot work added to some Celtic crosses adds the Trinity symbolism of the Godhead. Notice the Celtic cross pendant above has trinity knots at the end cap of each arm and then evolves into an eternity knot.




The sterling silver Celtic cross necklace is a Christian delight to behold. Click here to see the biggest collection of the sterling silver Celtic Cross Necklace. The Irish Celtic necklace above uses a three leaf clover as the circle and the three leaf circle was used, as legend has it, by St. Patrick to teach the Godhead.

Of all Celtic crosses the Celtic cross pendant seems to be the way the Celtic cross is used most. With the Celtic cross pendant you can design or customize you own Celtic cross necklace. Click here for a awesome collection of the Celtic cross pendant.
