The design draws on the interlaced art of medieval Ireland and Britain. Its center holds a \u003cstrong\u003etriquetra\u003c\/strong\u003e, one of the oldest Celtic knot forms. The heart frames the knot, joining two symbols of bond and continuity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Celtic heart necklace is cast in lead-free pewter. The \u003cstrong\u003etriquetra\u003c\/strong\u003e inside has three even arcs that meet without a beginning or end. Insular manuscripts such as the \u003cstrong\u003eBook of Kells\u003c\/strong\u003e use the same knot. Worn together, the heart and the trinity knot speak of love that holds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-Free Pewter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 in H x 1 in W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 in metal chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWear:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unisex, suitable for adults and children\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10067\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.museumize.com\/collections\/culture-celtic-irish\"\u003eCeltic and Irish Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Trinity Knot at the Heart of This Celtic Pendant\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003etriquetra\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of the oldest knot forms in \u003cstrong\u003eInsular Celtic art\u003c\/strong\u003e. Its name comes from the Latin for three-cornered. Pre-Christian Celts read its three arcs as earth, sea, and sky. Early Christian scribes later used it as a sign of the Holy Trinity. The same knot appears in the Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHeart and Knot Together\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart-shape, as we know it, is a medieval European symbol of love. Joined with the older trinity knot, it pairs love with continuity. A Celtic knot has no clear start and no end. That quality has long made these knots a token of lasting bonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStyling and Wearing the Celtic Heart Necklace\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Celtic heart necklace fits any wearer, adult or child. The 18 in chain rests at the collarbone for most wearers. The light, one-inch pendant sits flat against the skin. The open knotwork catches light from any angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the pewter with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners. Store it flat or hanging to protect the chain. Keep it dry to preserve the surface over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFor More Reading\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Triquetra\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eTriquetra (the trinity knot in Celtic and Christian art)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.walkerscelticjewelry.com\/blogs\/celticjewelry\/triquetra\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eTriquetra in Book of Kells\u003c\/a\u003es - What does it really mean?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vikingheritage.net\/blogs\/viking\/triquetra\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eTriquetra\u003c\/a\u003e - more details in depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Celtic_knot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eCeltic knot (history and design tradition)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Insular_art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eInsular art (the medieval style of the Book of Kells)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Westair Reproductions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32146699485297,"sku":"10067","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/0537\/files\/10067-heart-celtic-knot-2-1080sqr.jpg?v=1780420797","url":"https:\/\/www.museumize.com\/products\/celtic-heart-necklace","provider":"Museumize.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
