DescriptionMade in Ireland by Fado Jewelry, Dublin. Inspired by intricate designs on one of Ireland's national treasures, the Ardagh Chalice, this 10k gold Irish Celtic cross is embossed with Celtic knotwork of excellent definition and detail. To the Celts, the flowing lines and interwoven designs of their art represented the interconnectedness and continuity of life, things without beginnings and ends, and the ongoing spiritual journey...The National Museum in Dublin houses fine examples of Irish Celtic jewelry and metalwork... today Fado of Dublin carries on that tradition. This cross is 15/16 of an inch high, measured without including the piece that attaches to the chain, and 11/16 of an inch across. An 18 inch 10k gold chain is included, and the cross comes presented in a green velvet gift box. 10k gold. Assayed and hallmarked at Dublin Castle, Ireland.
