Celtic Jewelry For Women

CELTIC JEWELRY FOR WOMEN

 
With in the sub-genre of silver Celtic jewelry known as Celtic jewelry for women there are countless types and styles of Celtic jewelry for women. Rather than try to cover in one post an adequate look at all of Celtic jewelry for women we will narrow it down to one type of Celtic knot necklace, the  Celtic love knot necklace.
 
 
 

CELTIC KNOT NECKLACE

The Celtic love knot necklace for some is any Celtic symbol that represents love. I wouldn't argue with that position but since Celtic jewelry for women has a specific Celtic love knot necklace we will look at that example first.
 
 
The first two Celtic knot necklace are examples of a Celtic love knot necklace. The first one has "Love" engraved on the back of the Celtic love knot pendant, the second Celtic love knot necklace has "Love Knot" engraved on the back.
 
 
 
But like the third Celtic knot necklace, a Celtic heart necklace is a great and popular symbol for love. These types of Celtic knot necklaces are great items in the collection of Celtic jewelry for women.

For those with Irish roots or or those who enjoy Irish culture or or some other reason connect with the Irish giving Irish jewelry for Christmas gifts is a great idea. As we talk of Irish jewelry for women as Christmas gifts I thought it would be nice to look at the lyrics o an old traditional Irish Christmas Carol, this one called Curoo, Curoo or otherwise known as the Carol Of The Birds.  Merry Christmas and enjoy sterling silver Irish jewelry as a grand Christmas gift.
 
 
 
This traditional Irish Christmas carol dates back at least to the 1700's and perhaps may even be older.
 
 
 
Curoo, Curoo
(Carol Of The Birds)
Full many a bird did wake and fly
Curoo, curoo, curoo
Full many a bird did wake and fly
To the manger bed with a wandering cry
On Christmas day in the morning
Curoo, curoo, curoo
Curoo, curoo, curoo
The lark, the dove, the red bird came
Curoo, curoo, curoo
The lark, the dove, the red bird came
And they did sing in sweet Jesus' name
On Christmas day in the morning
Curoo, curoo, curoo
Curoo, curoo, curoo
 
 
 
The owl was there with eyes so wide
Curoo, curoo, curoo
The owl was there with eyes so wide
And he did sit at sweet Mary's side
On Christmas day in the morning
Curoo, curoo, curoo
Curoo, curoo, curoo
The shepherds knelt upon the hay
Curoo, curoo, curoo
The shepherds knelt upon the hay
And angels sang the night away
On Christmas day in the morning
Curoo, curoo, curoo
Curoo, curoo, curoo

Danny Boy

Danny Boy

O Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountainside
The summer's gone and all the roses dying
It's you, it's you must go and I must bide

But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
O Danny boy, O Danny boy, I love you so

And when you come and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead, as dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an Ave there for me

And I shall hear, though soft your tread above me
And all my grave shall warmer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me

Celic Infinity Pendant

Celtic Pendants

 
Sterling silver Celtic pendants come in many shapes, styles and genres. Some of the more popular types of Celtic pendants are the trinity knot pendant, triskele pendant and the Celtic infinity pendant. As we delve into Celtic knot pendants, we will examine in some depth the Celtic infinity pendant and the Celtic infinity circle meaning.
 
 
 
The Celtic infinity knot pendant comes in many geometric shapes and designs or in other words, it comes in different styled Celtic knots. The Celtic infinity circle meaning is a Celtic way of referring to eternity or endlessness.



The silver Celtic knot pendants shown in his post are a good example of the diverse nature of the Celtic infinity design. These Celtic infinity pendants look different but have the same meaning.
 
 
 
The three Celtic knot pendants above are good examples of the Celtic infinity pendant. The infinity design is where the line(s) used to make the knot have no beginning or end.
 
 

Technically this fourth Celtic knot pendant is a infinity knot because the lines have no beginning or end but it doesn't look like the traditional Celtic infinity knot.
 
 
 
This last Celtic knot pendant is a great example of a contrasting Celtic knot pendant. It is referred to as a Celtic tribal design. Notice this last Celtic pendant has open lines so it does not represent infinity.

Again, Our Dear Redeeming Lord

Again, Our Dear Redeeming Lord

 
1. Again, our dear redeeming Lord,
We meet in thy beloved name,
While from the fountains of thy love
Thy Spirit kindles like a flame.
For all the anguish of thy soul,
For thy great gift so full and free,
With grateful hearts all penitent,
Dear Lord, we do remember thee.
 
2. In token of thy bleeding flesh
And of thy blood so freely spent,
We meet around thy table now
And take thy holy sacrament.
We seek thy pardon, dearest Lord,
And may thy favor, too, be sent,
While in our hearts we turn to thee,
Renewed in faith and covenant.

Abide with Me; 'Tis Eventide

Abide with Me; 'Tis Eventide

 
1. Abide with me; 'tis eventide.
The day is past and gone;
The shadows of the evening fall;
The night is coming on.
Within my heart a welcome guest,
Within my home abide.
 
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
 
2. Abide with me; 'tis eventide.
Thy walk today with me
Has made my heart within me burn,
As I communed with thee.
Thy earnest words have filled my soul
And kept me near thy side.
 
3. Abide with me; 'tis eventide,
And lone will be the night
If I cannot commune with thee
Nor find in thee my light.
The darkness of the world, I fear,
Would in my home abide.
(
Lowrie M. Hofford)
 
 
 
This is a wonderful, soulful christian hymn. I only we could have The Savior stay the night with us...what peace that would bring to our soul. But we can have His spirit to be with us if we strive to keep His commandments, repent frequently and seek after Him. 
 
I don't know if Lowrie Hofford was inspired to write this hymn by the verse found in the gospel of Luke or not but check out the verse.
 
"But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them." (Luke 24:39)
 
 
 
Jesus' disciples pleaded with Him and He consented to stay the night with them. What a blessing for them.  We are blessed with the Bible...It would be nice to be alive when Jesus was walking the dusty roads of Jerusalem. But we are not, so we have to be content with reading the Bible and learning of the Savior.
 
Sterling silver cross necklaces for men are a great way to remind us to always think about The Lord.  There are many cross necklaces for men to choose from in the vast collection.
 
The sterling silver cross necklace for men comes in many styles and reflect many genres and is in fashion in any situation.
 
 
 
Sterling silver cross necklaces for men will always serve as inspiration and as a solid reminder of the teaching of the Bible or in other words, the teachings of Christianity.

Are You Washed In The Blood?

 
This classic Christian hymn "Are You Washed In The Blood?" reminds us of repentance and being cleansed by the blood of the Lamb.  This is a foundational truth of Christianity.
 
Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Refrain

Are you washed in the blood,
In the soul cleansing blood of the Lamb?
Are your garments spotless? Are they white as snow?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Are you walking daily by the Savior’s side?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Do you rest each moment in the Crucified?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Refrain

When the Bridegroom cometh will your robes be white?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright,
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Refrain

Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin,
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb;
There’s a fountain flowing for the soul unclean,
O be washed in the blood of the Lamb!

Refrain
