About this deal

It was believed that these spirals represented the four journeys of the Sun around the Earth, with each journey taking a quarter of a year (one journey, for example, would be from the equator to the North or South Pole). The Claddagh has an instantly recognizable design, comprised of two hands, a heart and a crown. The hands symbolize friendship, the heart represents love, while the crown signifies loyalty. Palladium , a chemical element with the symbol Pd and the atomic number 46 is a rare, and lustrous silvery-white metal. Discovered in 1803 by William Hyde Wollaston. It is a maintenance free metal and used as a coating. Palladium will not scratch or tarnish making it an excellent choice.

The Trinity Knot, also known as the ‘Triquetra Knot’, has been adopted from ancient Celtic art by Christianity as a symbol of the Holy Trinity; Father, Son & Holy Spirit. The number three bore great significance in Celtic culture. It was associated with the mind, body, spirit; earth, sea, sky as well as life’s stages; beginning, middle, and end. The Celts, therefore, interpreted that a triskele of these spirals was indeed a fertility symbol, representing three times three months – the duration of a human pregnancy. Celtic knotwork is also thought to be symbolic of the never-ending cycle of life, the constancy of love and the continuous changing of the seasons. Our Filigree knot is the most understated of our Celtic Knots, offering a subtle hint of this wonderful Celtic tradition for those who like to keep their style low-key. 3. Lovers Knot
