Item# 25704C
Size:
H: 4.8" (12.2 cm)
A very traditional Celtic design with interlaced Irish knots, this angel with trumpet is sure to become a treasured family heirloom.
Only pure and happy spirits were selected to become the Angels and Guardians of men. They teach us to love, pray, help, console and implore the spirits of joy for all those that we love and cherish.
The inspiration for the Celtic swirl design by Martin Croke came from Book of Kells, an illuminated manuscript Gospel book in Latin, containing the four Gospels of the New Testament that was created c. 800 AD. The illustrations and ornamentation of the Book of Kells surpass that of other Insular Gospel books in extravagance and complexity. The decoration combines traditional Christian iconography with the ornate swirling motifs typical of Celtic art. Figures of humans, animals and mythical beasts, together with Celtic knots and interlacing patterns in vibrant colors, enliven the manuscript's pages.
The Book of Kells is on display at Trinity College Library in Dublin.
This beautiful ornament is tastefully gift boxed in an elegant red Cashs gift box. Designed in Waterford, Ireland by Martin Croke. Handmade.
