Description
Celtic artists worked with stone, wood, metal and paint in a style characterized by its abstract nature, balance of form, delicacy, brightness of colour and most of all by its spirals and interlacing.
Prior to the advent of Christianity in Britain this style was applied to carvings, jewellery and war paint.
This Interlaced Cross Circle Gem pendant is made from lead-free pewter and is supplied with either a red, blue or green gem and is hung on a waxed cord. The information card is full colour on the front and has historical information on the reverse.
