What does it all stand for?

Some believe that this style of jewelry represents Love or Passion, for men s jewelry
some believe it stands for strength, bold, and even thought to mean brotherhood.

The truth is that it means all of the above. Let me clarify, there are no real concrete
historical facts that state of informs what the unique Celtic Knot Design
represents. So enterpitation is left up to you. What you see and feel in this style of
artwork like most artwork is for now, what it represents. Because of the amazing
amounts of different styles and looks available each could be interpreted differently
depending on the piece of jewelry the Celtic Knot Design is on.

A thin soft looking piece of jewelry may interpret the Celtic Knot as feminine
meaning love or passion were a thick / wide piece may appear masculine and mean
strength.

It is truly a mystery and intriguing how one jewelry design, how one style of artwork
can have so many different meanings to different people.

The answer to the question - What does the Celtic Knot Design mean, is
truly in the eye of the beholder.
