Trinity Knot Pendant

Trinity Knot Pendant

 
The sterling silver Celtic knot pendants come in many categories depending on the design o the Celtic knot. This post will examine a specific type of Celtic knots. Specifically we will look at the trinity knot pendant.
 
 
 
The trinity knot pendant is the Christian form of the triquettra pendant.
 
 
The triquetra pendant symbolism is based on the symbol of three's.  So is the Christian symbolism but we'll get to that a little later. The Celtic/Druid symbolism for the triquetra knot is symbolic of the naturals forces known as earth, air  and water. To others it symbolizes life, death and rebirth. It also can reflect any natural elements and symbols that naturally occur together or relate to each other.
 
 
 
Celtic trinity knot pendants are any type of Celtic knots with three corners or three sides to the knot. In this post each Celtic trinity knot pendant looks different but all have in common the three corners or three sides.
 

The picture just above is unique in that it is three trinity knots woven together as one knot. Very popular.
