Celtic Friendship Jewelry

Celtic Friendship Jewelry

 

Celtic knots have a broad interpretation. Some Celtic knots are authentic and some are patterned after authentic Celtic knot designs.  This Celtic knot necklace design is sometimes called the Celtic friendship jewelry.  Since so many Celtic knots are open for interpretation... it could be a Celtic friendship necklace. This is the design I'm talking about.

 

 

The silver Celtic knot necklace is technically called an Ulbster knot or Ulbster cross knot. Because so many Celtic knot necklaces are based on knots that are interlaced they could represent friendship. Where a line interweaves like two people becoming friends there live intertwine with each other.

 

Celtic knot jewelry sports many types of Celtic themed jewelry and Celtic friendship jewelry is just one of those types. The Celtic knot necklace above is two knots woven into one.  That makes a great friendship symbol

 

In my opinion, the Claddagh necklace, part of the silver Claddagh jewelry collection of Celtic knot jewelry is the perfect friendship necklace. Understanding the symbolism of the Claddagh symbol will explain how it makes perfect sense for the Celtic friendship necklace.

 

 

 

 

The Claddagh jewelry symbol represents hands friendship, heart means love and the crown is loyalty.  Here is a nice little ditty about the Claddagh symbol:

 

 

The hands are there for friendship,
The heart is there for love.
For loyalty throughout the year,
The crown is raised above.
