This gorgeously designed gold and sterling silver ShanOre Celtic Cross Claddagh Necklace perfectly blends faith and Irish Tradition into one beautiful necklace. Made in Ireland, the cross and its halo- arching into the hands of the Claddagh- are framed in glossy sterling silver while gold plating covers each of the Trinity Knots tucked within the arms of the cross, as well as the heart of the Claddagh. Finished with genuine diamonds adorning the halo and a genuine emerald flawlessly set in the centre of the cross, this gorgeous necklace is the perfect choice for anyone seeking a way to celebrate their faith and Irish heritage with elegance and class.
Stories of the Celtic Cross stretch far back through Ireland's long history. Traditionally associated with St. Patrick, it's said Ireland's patron Saint once came across a pagan standing stone imprinted with a circle, the symbol of the Moon Goddess, which he proceeded to bless and mark with the Latin cross. Another tells of how he combined the Pagan symbol of the Sun with the Latin Cross to tie the two religions together, helping to ease the transition into Christianity. Whatever the truth, these famous crosses are still seen dotting the landscapes of the Celtic Nations to this day and are iconic symbols of Ireland.
