Embodying the love of learning that infuses Celtic culture, medieval monks of the
Celtic lands preserved major portions of western learning. Laboring with pen and
ink over calfskin vellum, they created exquisite ornamented bibles, also transcribing
legends and history, poetry and observations of natural science.
9th Century Cat
illuminated
necklet
Before the printing press,
books were rare and precious
possessions, beautifully bound
and lavishly illuminated in a
manner befitting their esteemed
worth. Celtic manuscripts often
feature elaborate zoomorphic
knotwork, a style reflected
in this intricate sterling silver
necklet. Figures of four birds
entwine in a tribute to the
masters of ancient art. Adjusts
from 16"-18" long.
