Celtic Cross Necklace - Silver & 10k Gold | Handcrafted Irish Jewelry

Stone versions of this symbol were first erected across the Celtic region as early as the 9th century (during the Viking age). The famous Thorlief Hnakki Cross (found in Isle of Man) is an example of a combination of a Celtic cross carved and 100% Scandinavian Mammen art style with a runic inscription dedicating the cross to Thorleif's son. One legend is that St. Patrick originally designed this symbol as a combination of the pagan sun cross symbol and the cross of Christianity to help bring the two groups together. Others believe the circle simply represented eternity. Today the Celtic Cross symbol has become well known as a symbol of Celtic heritage.
