The Celtic Cross Pendants: Beautiful, Smaller Versions Of The Faith Of Their Fathers!

Across the countryside in all areas of Ireland

, Scotland, and Wales, you will come upon Celtic crosses in all of the cemeteries and those are duplicated around many people's necks as Celtic cross pendants! The symbolism, importance, and the influence of these very original, for their time, crosses have come to represent to one and all the representation of a time when the Sun ruled the sky and God was in his heaven.

The sheer beauty of these celtic cross pendants, in their old world, rustic charm sort of way, is captured for all to see in a modern recreation of this intricately patterned cross with all of the carvings and the circle and the animals and all of the rest. The circle still stands for the love of God, the cross still stands for the four seasons, and the whole is still a very greatly appreciated piece that does show that, in his infinite wisdom, He is still with us, even now.

The Celtic cross pendants will always signify that and will stand as a remembrance of that time. Yet, the world is another place than it was then. What about that?

The original celtic crosses were made around the sixth century BC. It was a symbol of eternity and that eternity in a faith with God always at the center. The circle, which was believed to be a pagan symbol, was used as the look of the eternal love of God in never-ending existence. Celtic cross pendants capture this as beautifully as the originals.

Celtic crosses of old were handmade and still hold their beauty as they molder on the graves of loved ones long gone. The Celtic pendants have the same attention to detail and many of them are still hand craftsmen in Ireland or Scotland by the craftsman that have handed this skill down from father to son. They still hold the same meaning of love and life and a faith that works miracles!

There cannot be a better gift for someone who has the spirit of the Irish in them. The religious nature of these crosses is not what a lot of people find them attractive for. They do have a lot of followers that will have nothing to do with the Christianity that these necklaces represent; they just like the looks! Moreover, who can blame them? They were made to be attractive, so that the pagans of the day would think that they were part of the worship. They had the carvings that were so popular among the pagans, didn't they?

Some of these will feature the knots and whorls that were on the originals. Some of them will have had precious gemstones inserted into various points of their length or width. Others will be made from gold, silver, bronze, or other metals and alloys that will bring out the beauty , a little bit more, of their engravings and enhance their rustic quality, however, the Celtic cross pendants are still the same symbol of love, hope and faith that they always were.
