Celtic Cross
Celtic Cross Meaning
The Celtic cross originated in Ireland. The cross is characterized by a circle of the horizontal and vertical members. The circle is a symbol of eternity and the endlessness of God's love. The Celtic cross is also known as the Cross of Iona, which is believed to have been taken from Ireland to the island of Iona by ST. Columbia. The Celtic cross originated sometime between the 7th and 9th centuries. See our entire collection of Celtic crosses.The Celtic crosses were all made of stone and intricately carved. This ancient cross can still be observed throughout Ireland and throughout Europe. Darby Creek has partnered with the finest artist and historian Ruth McHarp, to bring you an unprecedented collection of Celtic crosses.
Our collection is based on original pieces that have been reproduced into pieces that can be hung on a wall with all of the detail of the original. We have segregated our line based on the origin of each county in Ireland as well as crosses found in the Celtic regions of England and Germany.
