Description
 
An awesome piece! Our Pewter Celtic Knowth Spiral Pin/Pendant is truly a design plucked from ancient Irish Celtic history. The lead-free pewter has an overlay of highly polished Sterling silver, giving this bold piece a very expensive look. A very dramatic, tribal design that speaks of silent symbols and primitive culture. Other details of the Pewter Celtic Knowth Spiral Pin/Pendant include:
  • Sterling silver over lead-free pewter
  • Highly polished
  • Approx. 3" x  2 ¾"
  • Back bail
  • Stem and clutch closure
Knowth is a complex of prehistoric passage tombs in County Meath, Ireland. Dating from around 3000 B.C., Knowth is especially important for its superb collection of megalithic art, which includes over 300 decorated stones. The spiral is featured on many of them. Scholarship indicates that the spiral pattern is suggestive of re-birth or reincarnation.
