Sterling Silver Unisex Celtic Cross 20" Spiga

According to a popular legend, St Patrick himself was responsible for the creation of the Celtic cross. He combined a Christian cross symbol with a halo representing the sun, one of the most important ancient Celtic symbols representing life and change. There may be a grain of truth in this legend. With the fading of the old pagan customs in Ireland, early Christian monks combined Irish pagan symbols with traditional Catholic ones to create something that appealed to all of the populace.

This intricate sterling silver pendant blends Irish mysticism with Christian belief. Crafted from oxidized silver, the arms and halo are all decorated with incredibly detailed Irish knotwork. The accompanying 18” chain is in a classic slim silver.
