Finding The Perfect Celtic Design For Wedding Rings – Part 1
The variety of Celtic designs for wedding rings is extremely broad. For a really subtle look, there are designs of strand woven in a delicate and simple pattern. For a more elaborate and eye-catching look there are designs based on intricate filigree patterns, with each layer having a degree of significance.
When choosing a Celtic design for your wedding rings you need to make decisions on three areas – the type of Celtic knot you would like, the types of gemstones you would like to use and the type of metals that will make up the ring.
Knots
There are a multitude of designs and variations on the Celtic knot. There are flowing, smooth braids on the one hand and angular, rigid designs on the other. Although you may find that a jeweller has labelled a Celtic ring with a specific meaning, there is no recognised directory that defines what each Celtic design means. This leaves interpretation open to the couple who can choose a design that they feel best reflects their relationship and personalities.
A custom design can even create one-off knots which include the couple initials, names or dates. Symbols such as hearts, snakes, vines, leaves, circles and serpents can all be interwoven into the design to add further meaning.
Patterns can be included in the design for Celtic wedding rings in a number of ways. For simpler designs individual strands of metal can be woven together to make the ring. At Marlows we are experts in jewellery for weddings and engagements.
