Celtic Knot Triquestra Boho Dangle Earrings

- Amethyst, Carnelian, Rainforest Jasper Gemstones -

These earthy Celtic knot gemstone earrings are inspired by the Irish countryside and perfect for gift giving to anyone who loves Ireland. Their boho chic styling gives them a nice versatility for dressy or casual wear. The main feature of these handmade dangles are two oval rainforest jasper beads, one on each earring. This gemstone has variations in color shading as well as inclusions of quartz and other minerals; thus each bead is a one-of-a-kind creation of Mother Nature. These two beads complement each other well and are interesting in their patterning.

Under the jasper ovals dangle the Celtic knot charms, small but shiny and beautifully detailed with a triple loop eternal knot, also known as a triquestra or Celtic triad. Above the ovals are faceted amethyst and faceted carnelian beauties. Also included in these earrings are sterling silver round beads and beadcaps and sterling silver earring hooks with clear ear guards.

The length here is just under 2.25 inches, including the earring hooks.

Unique and eye-catching, these eternal knot gemstone earrings were designed and handmade beaded by me with care, thought, and best wishes for their destined wearer. They come on a PrettyGonzo earring card and in a lovely organza bag, wrapped and ready for gifting!

ABOUT THE CELTIC TRIAD SYMBOL
The Celtic triad symbol, aka the triquestra, is frequently found in Irish Christian art, including the Book of Kells, where it symbolizes the Holy Trinity. In this way, it is similar to the shamrock, which Saint Patrick employed in his teachings on the Trinity. The triad is typically incorporated in the building of other images, such as the Cross. As an ancient pagan symbol, it has possible connections to the Celtic Brigid, a triple-aspect goddess that some believe is an earlier, pre-Christian precursor of Saint Brigid. It may also represent the Maiden, Mother, and Crone aspect of the Goddess in neo-Paganism. Generally, it's a symbol of "threeness" - from love, hope and charity to childhood, adulthood, and old age. In any form, it has an illustrious history and is quite meaningful.
