Description The Celtic cross, originating from early medieval Ireland and Scotland (approx. 5th–9th centuries), merges a traditional Christian cross with a surrounding circle, symbolizing Christ’s eternity, wisdom, and the blending of Celtic heritage with Christian faith. The circle often represents the sun, the wheel of life, or a halo, while the structure itself represents the union of heaven and earth. Symbolism and Significance The Circle: Symbolizes eternity, God’s grace, the sun, or a halo/wreath, indicating an unending, divine presence. The Cross: Represents Christ’s sacrifice and victory over death, often featuring intricate, interlacing knotwork that symbolizes the interconnectedness of life. Cultural Fusion: It represents a synthesis of ancient pagan, earth-based, or druidical traditions with Christianity, sometimes interpreting the cross as supreme over the sun/nature. This item measures 1 3/8 inch x 1 3/8 inch (34mm x 35mm) oval.
