Spiral Bone Brooch /
Necklace
Triskele or triple spirals are the Celtic symbols for the three stages
of woman which are; maid, mother and wise woman. You can see
four deeply carved into this unusual design.
Our bone shaped brooch is replicated
from a first century hanging bowl attachment from Derbyshire, England.
It is an example of Irish work brought to England through trade.
The original is one of three like
pieces who's purpose was to carry rings that held a bronze bowl
aloft.
You can put it to better use as a
dramatic brooch or have us fit it with a sterling chain to be worn as
an 18 inch necklace.
