Ancient motifs with eternal meaning
Knot work motifs, which are now found platinum Celtic wedding rings may be thousands of years old, and symbolise the natural circle of love and life. The Celts thought that the earth, life and death itself were divine, and knot work was a sacrosanct form of artistic expression. Some of the most famous designs are preserved in intricately illustrated manuscripts in the 9th century Book of Kells, which depicts images of people and animals with knot work and shows the link between medieval Christianity with the ancient Druids.
