Celtic Key Pendant

Celtic key pendant – this intricate little Celtic key pendant is made from pewter and features both a traditional square Celtic knot and a Triscele as part of its design.  Comes on an 18″ tin plated trace chain.

The Celts used knotwork to decorate many of their artifacts. To them, the intricate patterns woven into spirals and knots symbolise the continuity of life.

The triscele is commonly found in late Celtic art and is thought to have some Roman influence, although fine examples are found in the native art of Ireland and Scotland. It is thought to represent the three realms of Celtic lore: the past, the present and the future. One of the most popular of Ancient Celtic designs, it survived well into the Christian period, probably because it could also be considered to represent the Holy Trinity.
