KNOT
CELTIC
No Beginning, No End
The symbols and history of Ireland and Scotland have been around for thousands of years, long before St.Patrick came to Ireland and the Celtic Islands. Celtic designs are very rich in history and folklore. Many design you see today have their roots from the Book of Kells. The Celts use knotwork, animals, and nature to bring a mistery and art to their lives and their history, so that the Irish Culture would never be forgotten.
The interlacing lines of the Celtic Knot stands for "no beginning, no ending, the continuity of everlasting love and binding together or intertwinning of two sould or spirits." Christianity has embrassed much of the ancient Celtic symbolism and had adapted many Celtic Knots into high crosses and illuminated manuscripts.
