Is your wife-to-be more unusual than the ordinary? Then why not
opt for a unique Celtic engagement ring rather than the typical
solid band or diamond engagement
ring set. Celtic engagement rings offer beauty, history, and a message. Below are just a few
examples of Celtic engagement rings you may consider purchasing:
Infinity knot- Celtic beliefs that have persisted for centuries have always centered on the
idea that life is an eternal, ongoing ribbon of eternity. Typically, a Celtic wedding ring will
often consist of designs including lines and ribbons. These details signify an eternal connection
of intertwining lives, making a Celtic engagement ring particularly pertinent to marriage. In
Celtic mythology, the main ribbon signifies Creyr, or creator. The creator is synonymous with
life and the bringer of babies. On many Celtic engagement rings, Creyr can be seen connecting
the ribbons and acts as a link between lives.
Claddagh Ring- This Celtic engagement ring features two hands holding a heart wearing a crown.
The hands represent friendship, the crown represents loyalty, and the heart, represents love.
Gimmel (bond Ring)- This Celtic engagement ring originates from the Middle Ages when solemn
betrothal by means of the Gimmel or Bond Ring often preceded matrimony. This Irish wedding ring
is comprised of three joined rings. If a couple were to be separated, the rings were broken apart
at the betrothal in the presence of a witness. The man and woman broke away the upper and lower
rings from the central one, which the witness retained. When the marriage contract was fulfilled,
the three portions of the wedding ring were again united and the ring used in the ceremony.
Emeralds- Emeralds are an excellent gemstone to include in your Celtic wedding band or ring.
The green color is synonymous with luck and success- two qualities that are no doubt extremely
important for a newly married couple. Shop for Engagement Rings Now
