The Gallen Priory Cross,

A beautiful repousse copper art of, The Gallen Priory cross,

This is a traditional Celtic-crafted copper, representing a continuation of a long tradition of Celtic arts, which began with my ancient forefathers, “The Ancient Celts”, crafted with Celtic magic in an ancient, honoured tradition.

The Gallen Priory cross, is one of the unique designs on an Irish cross. It depicts two coiled creatures creating a central spiral and issuing forth three faces and one standing figure, all with enigmatic, stylized features uniquely Celtic in the large eyes and pointed chin. These four heads might have symbolized the elements or the corners of the world. Four outer points with a centre are also the design of every cross, which mirrors the five original provinces of Ireland and was thus a mystical and essential concept to the early Celts. This 8th-century ringed cross is from County Offaly, Ireland.
