Two Triscele Drop Earrings (Bronze)
SJ - BZE07
|
Bronze trisceles with raised triscele detail on gold-plated sterling silver hooks.
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.

Spiral Triangle Drop Earrings (Bronze)
SJ - BZE48
|
|
Embossed bronze rounded triangles on gold-plated sterling silver hooks.
Spirals can be traced back 7000 years, developing from observing natural examples in shells and plants. Clockwise and anticlockwise spirals represent the inner and outer evolution of the spirit respectively. In relation to the seasonal calendar these relate to the winter and summer, the year being polarised into light and dark seasons. In Celtic belief this translates to the theme in which one always moves from the darkness into the light.
