Celtic Ring? What is and Why Should I pick up One
Thousands of years ago, the Celts, a group of self-governing tribes disseminated throughout what's now Europe, were clever craftsmen who created patterns of knots & rings that inspired the creators of unique engagement rings jewelry. But trying to understand these patterns of knots & why marriage alliances are so perfect can be an illusion. These ancient motifs are ingrained in mysterious cultures of preliterate times.
While written descriptions of the earliest Celtics derived from the Romans, some knots found in Eastern Europe showed facts of at least 20,000 years old. We know that the Celts believed in the divinity of the earth & all the natural conditions linked with it. Their cemeteries had large & varied local gods scenery. They thought of the natural world as sacred & they also thought that each river, mountain and tree had its own spirit. The rituals were conducted in private oak surroundings or waterfalls. The ancient Celtic leaders even mocked human-like images of the Olympic gods and the wild animals of the valleys & forests.
Craftsmanship of knots, which today has become synonymous with the current conception of "Celtic" was undoubtedly a sacred form of artistic expression. Some of the most famous designs were preserved in specially decorated manuscripts, such as the Book of Kells which somehow managed to survive the Viking invasions. It was created in the 9th century in a monastery on the coast of Scotland, & has great pics of people & animals embellished with motifs of knots patterns, thus linking mediaeval Christianity with ancient Druidic culture.
In Western culture, there is a long & venerable tradition of artists who were inspired by motives based on knots. Celtic sketches were mostly popular during the Renaissance. Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo & Raphael studied & used knots in their work. In modern times, some of Picasso's early works are strongly influenced by knots patterns. There has always been a group of sculptors & artists who kept the flame burning with Celtic knots in jewellery & other artistic expressions.
For some people, the option to have unique engagement rings, in this case a Celtic wedding ring is an articulation of their deep-rooted desire to connect with their own origins. They connect with the European tradition that treats the earth as a mother. It's also very easy to fall in love with the spiritual Celtic music & poetry. Others only want to use every day a unique wedding ring that's attractive & meaningful.
Whether you've Celtic roots or not, a Celtic wedding ring design will always be appropriate since it implies a universal & symbolic meaning. In the most general sense, the knots depict 2 different paths joined together.
Life itself can be seen as a large network of relations that are expressed on the subject of knots. Even our own spiritual path, metaphorically speaking, can be viewed as a web of interconnected experiences. Celtic wedding rings are there to remind us, in a physical form, about our mystic connection with another person & the great web of life.
This set of unique experiences makes us different, & that's why we feel more interested to certain grounds of knots in partnerships than others. What brings you and your fiancé together may well reflect the nature of your relationship. Some couples are attracted to simple and easy-flowing knots designs and this could, perhaps, describe a commitment based on harmony & peace. Other patterns of knots in engagement rings are more dynamic & complicated, suggesting creative elements, or passionate ups & downs.
