This handsome ring is nice and wide (8.7mm) featuring a 6mm stone with a very nice celtic knot design engraved around it. The design looks more like it was delicately etched into the metal, but it was actually created carefully in wax first, but still retains its flat feel.

If you prefer a larger stone, check out our 7x5mm Swirled Etched Celtic Knot Band (WB-128).

We also have a version of this ring without a stone, see Wide Etched Celtic Knot Band (WB-88).

Throughout northern and western Europe, there flourished an art form of graceful interlace that was to adorn everything from standing stones in sacred places to personal adornment and jewelry. The Celts drew mesmeric spirals and swirls, envisioning the world as a series of cycles passing from one to the other. Originally, the knot work appeared in ancient Scandinavia and was introduced to the Celts through raids and cultural interchange. However, it was the Celts that truly made this motif a work of art. Their vision of the world flowed from spiral to knot, both representing interconnectedness of all life, and the cyclical nature of the world. Like a spider's web, no part can be touched without affecting the whole.Tapping into the Great Spirit, the One, and the incredible potential that is yours. Just as the single strands of the cord are somewhat fragile, when woven together, the rope is far stronger than all of its individual parts.
