"Looking forward to the look on my sister-in-laws face when she sees this cross. We just returned from an 8 day tour of Ireland and this cross figures in an old family legend. We couldn't find a reproduction of it there so this is perfect. .........
......The Muirdeach Cross was the perfect gift - my sister -in-law laughed and cried when she saw it. Thanks so much for the extra effort you put in on such short notice, to get it to us before her birthday. Great work, great gift".

Celtic crosses are readily recognized by the round circle holding the beam of the cross. It is widely believed that St Patrick used the Christian cross and the sun cross as one to convert the pagan Druids to Christianity, thus the cross with the circle was set. Priests in Ireland would tell you the Celtic Cross's circle represents eternity through the eternal love of God by the sacrifice of his son on the cross. As with all ancient Irish History much has been given to the oral communication of it's happenings and is very open to numerous interpretations. There are many celtic crosses scattered across the land.
The High Crosses of Ireland survived over the centuries and these crosses were richly decorated. They were usually found at place of learning and refuge like monasteries. The High Crosses featured are handcrafted in Ireland and is an authentic copy back and front of the east and west face of the original cross.
