In America, most jewelry wearers seperate the Celtic jewelry from the Irish jewelry. Technically there is a difference as Irish jewelry designs reflect both Irish heritage like shamrocks, four leaf clovers, Irish dancing etc. But many of these Irish symbols will include some Celtic knot styles added to them.
