Celtic knot work is at the heart of many of Ireland’s carved artwork and jewelry design.
Spirals, step patterns and key patterns are dominant motifs in Celtic art before the Christian influence on the Celts, which began around 450. These designs found their way into early Christian manuscripts and artwork with the addition of depictions from life, such as animals, plants and even humans.
In the beginning, the patterns were intricate interwoven cords, and as time went on the designs became more complex and ornamental. According to legend there are other meanings for Celtic knot work. One tells of the tangle of knots that symbolize life’s journey and the curved road we must take. Another legend tells that it symbolizes family.
Our silver stud Connemara Marble earrings have been inspired by our favorite meaning to be found which is eternity – the knots have no beginning and no end, a symbol of never ending love.
Our Connemara Marble found only here in Ireland dates back over 900 million years and comes from our own family quarry in Lissoughter, Co Galway.
