Druid Celtic Pagan Vintage Jewellery Featured A Variety 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 include Celtic symbols, which ended up intently joined to Nature. However, it is the intricate styles that give historic 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 parts have been adapted throughout the generations to suit prevailing trends, yet they remain trustworthy to the original creations. Celtic warriors wore torcs in struggles, and the twisted design was something of a good luck charm, as it was considered it would bring the wearer safely again from the struggle. The torcs certainly offered no kind of actual physical protection, but as Celtic warriors wore no armour, perhaps the torc served its purpose as a good luck charm.
