Sterling silver Celtic knot jewelry is almost an infinite collection of various Celtic knot and Celtic designs. There is a collection of Celtic jewelry for men and Celtic jewelry for women. We will focus on the Celtic jewelry for women.  

Celtic jewelry for women has all the same same types of Celtic jewelry types including Claddagh rings.

So what is the difference between Celtic jewelry for women and Celtic jewelry for men? The answer is pretty much the same for both sides except for Celtic earrings, Celtic rings and Claddagh rings.

Many men wear Celtic and Claddagh rings so is that a real difference? The fact here is that the difference between Celtic jewelry for men and Celtic jewelry for women in the Celtic ring department is the size. It seems as though the Claddagh ring sizes lean towards the smaller side even though there are larger sizes for the men, there just are not as many bigger sizes.

Celtic symbolism is a matter for debate. The Celts existed for 100's of years without a written language to explain the various designs the evolved over the centuries. One thing is for sure. Since their artistic designs have had a resurgence in art, jewelry and architecture.

While there is a lot of disputation over the meaning behind the Celtic knot symbols one thing everyone finds a common ground is the agreement that the Celtic knot and other designs are now a classic.

The Celts started off culturally as mythical pagans. One general concept behind the Celtic Knot design is the never ending lines in the design. Most have taken that never ending or eternal line to represent interaction between eternity and mortality as one interconnectedness. Some just refer to it in more simple terms of the knot of eternity.

Christianity came to Ireland and the British Isles and as part of the conversion process the Church wanted to get rid of all the "pagan" Celtic symbols. The Celts resisted and a compromise evolved. A blending of Celtic artistry with the Christian Cross. This is known as the Celtic Cross.

Another popular and distinct Celtic design is the Triskele. It symbolizes the three spheres cycle of life. The three spheres (Land, Sea and Sky) represents the three aspects of the material world each aspect ever flowing outward and always returning to the point from which it started.

The Trinity Knot has come to mean in modern times as the Christian symbol of the trinity.

Although the Celtic Knots, Triskeles and other symbols are popular in art and architectural facades, the Celtic Knot symbols are the most prevalent in sterling silver jewelry. There are Celtic Knot Pendants, Celtic Triskele Pendant, Celtic Cross Pendants, Celtic Knot Necklaces, Celtic Knot Earrings, Celtic Knot Rings,
Celtic Cross Necklaces, and Celtic Trinity Knot Pendants,
