Bronze Irish Cross Pendant

The interwoven strands of Celtic knot work in this pendant are a quintessential feature of ancient Irish art, forming patterns so intricate that it is sometimes called "the work of angels". This Celtic cross jewelry effortlessly evokes a long ago age of beauty and wonder.

The cabochon at its center is actually not a gemstone at all. It is made of resin, polished to a glossy black shine, which makes a lovely contrast to the warm golden gleam of the bronze.

What is the meaning of the Celtic knots on the Cross?
The Celtic knots symbolize interconnection, and an unseen pattern that links each part to the Whole.

I am sensitive to some metals. Is bronze going to irritate my skin?
Generally speaking, metal sensitivities are only an issue with jewelry that is worn for prolonged periods right next to the skin. This would include rings and earrings. Typically, pendants have a much lower chance of causing problems.

That being said, bronze is an alloy that contains a mix of metals, primarily copper (88%) and tin (12%), with traces of aluminum, zinc, nickel, silicon, and/or phosphorus. This mixture creates a beautiful alloy that is more durable than copper alone, but if you know you are sensitive to any of the components, you might want to stick to our sterling silver jewelry.
