Irish Crosses

Irish Crosses

Sterling silver Irish crosses are a delightful contribution to the Christian cross necklace genre. The Irish Crosses add a lot to the Christian cross necklace genre because there are additional Irish Christian symbols that fit with the already highly symbol Christian cross necklace.



Some of the symbols that come on Irish crosses are a three leaf clover. Each of the three petals represents a member of the Holy Trinity.


These Irish cross necklaces demonstrate the three leaf clover symbolism.


This Irish cross necklace features a Irish Claddagh symbol in place of the traditional circle at the intersection of the cross. The Irish Claddagh symbol represents hands, heart and a crown. These icons represent the following: Hands mean friendship, heart is love and the crown is loyalty.

Another Irish cross necklace is the St. Bridgid cross.

This Irish cross necklace is the most truly Irish cross necklace of all the others. The other pictures of the Irish cross necklaces have Irish symbols but also have Celtic symbols making them an Irish Celtic cross.
