Some symbols haven't changed in a thousand years — and they don't need to. The Heritage Collection stays true to the manuscript's own imagery: triskeles, trefoils, crosses, and knotwork, rendered exactly as they appear in the Book of Kells.
What Makes It "Heritage"
Where the Contemporary Celtic Collection takes creative liberty with familiar animals and modern subjects, the Heritage Collection doesn't reinterpret — it reproduces. Each piece features a traditional Celtic symbol pulled directly from the manuscript or its wider artistic tradition, with the same knotwork and detail that made the original so remarkable.
Signature Symbols in This Collection
- Triskele — one of the oldest and most recognizable images in Celtic art, predating Christianity in Ireland by thousands of years, often tied to cycles of three: land, sea, and sky.
- Trefoil Knotwork — the three-lobed form long associated with Ireland, worked here into traditional interlacing rather than a simplified modern shamrock.
- Celtic Cross — the cross blended with a circle of knotwork, one of the most enduring symbols to come out of early Christian Ireland.
- Brigid's Cross — a woven cross tied to Saint Brigid, traditionally made to bless a home.
Made to Use, Made to Keep
Every piece is hand-built without a wheel, high-fired to 2160°F, and finished with food-safe glaze. Because each piece is shaped and stamped entirely by hand, no two are ever quite identical.
