A Celtic Knot is a symbolic pattern of a looped knot that has no start, and no finish. It was said to represent eternity in friendship, loyalty, faith and love.
Some of the materials used are gold, bronze, silver and amber. Gold was hammered into sheets and decorated with embossed and chased patterns similar to those found on pottery from that period: zigzag motifs, triangles and diamond or kite shapes.
More modern techniques include the use of 3D CAD modelling, rapid manufacturing and Metal Casting to achieve more intricate designs.
The special combination of the hidden meanings, symbols and intricate designs of Celtic Jewellery is what makes it so popular. It also contains unique elements that many other forms of jewellery don’t possess.
For example, Celtic Jewellery is focused on the metal designs and patterns that are incorporated into the pieces, not on the gemstones. The designs are also used as a method of storytelling, which sets this style of jewellery apart from the other historical counterparts that are circulated in today’s jewellery market.
