Pagan Druid Celtic Vintage Jewellery Used Lots Of Enigmatic Symbols
Celtic Jewellery History
Between 2000BC and around 500AD, the Celts devised a distinctive and easily identifiable style of celtic jewellery making that is still popular today. Using mainly silver and gold, the pieces would inevitably integrate Celtic symbols, which had been carefully connected to Nature. However, it is the intricate designs that give historical Celtic jewelry its universal and enduring appeal.
The earliest examples of Celtic jewellery were neck torcs, a large ring that was worn as a necklace, and ornamental brooches. These classic items have been adapted during the hundreds of years to suit prevailing trends, yet they remain devoted to the original creations. Celtic warriors wore torcs in fights, and the twisted design was something of a good luck charm, due to the fact it was thought it would bring the wearer safely back again from the fight. The torcs certainly offered no kind of bodily protection, but as Celtic warriors wore no armour, perhaps the torc served its purpose as a good luck charm.
