Fashioned from 14K yellow gold, this dramatic diamond-accent Celtic cross features detailed Celtic knotwork and spirals of polished gold adorning a matte-finished cross. A 0.06 carat t.w. full-cut diamond adorns the center of the cross. To view this pendant without the diamond accent, see our Large Ornate Celtic Cross #5223. Click the photograph for a detailed view. The Celtic cross evolved in the British Isles, its earliest forms dating from the seventh to ninth centuries. There are varying traditions regarding the origin of the circle. One tradition includes the story of how St. Patrick, "the Enlightener of Ireland", took a standing stone etched with a circle that symbolized the Druid moon goddess, and marked a Latin cross over the circle, thus incorporating a pagan symbol into a new Christian cross for the converted Druids.
