What is a Celtic Design? Most people associate 'Celtic' with an Irish Claddagh or classic Trinity knot or cross pattern and wedding rings lend themselves perfectly to these designs. The term 'Celtic' refers to the Iron Age European culture in about 1,000 BC and includes Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Welsh, Breton, Manx, Cornish, and several extinct pre-Roman languages such as Gaulish.
Metalwork from this period was charaterised by intricate spials and geometric designs often made in Gold, Silver and Bronze.
