Gold Chains and Celtic Jewellery



You need to have a few gold chains in your jewellery collection. That is because gold chains are like the little black dress - if you cannot decide on what jewellery pieces to wear, you can just throw on some chains around your neck or wrists. They add an instant touch of elegance and sophistication even on your most casual outfit.

Another great thing about gold chains is that they are versatile. You can match them with pendants and charms for a unique look. You do not have to own many necklaces or bracelets just to have a different look each time you dress up. All you need to do is to attach a pendant or a few charms on your chains and you are ready to go.

There are so many kinds of pendants and charms that you can go for. But if you are the type who likes unusual jewellery, you can create a unique look by matching your chains with Celtic jewellery pendants.

The Magical Splendour of Celtic-Inspired Jewellery

Jewellery pieces done in Celtic designs have always been thought of as fascinating and even a bit magical. Part of this fascination that people have with Celtic-inspired jewellery is the fact that in many fantasy stories involving elves and the fey folk, these folk are often portrayed to wear jewellery similar to Celtic styles. Celtic styles in jewellery enjoyed immense popularity some years ago with the showing of The Lord of the Rings in theatres, as the elves of Rivendell and Lothlorien all wore beautiful Celtic-looking jewellery pieces.

But then, of course, the ancient Celtic druids were said to invoke the powers of nature through the symbols they wear on their jewellery. To this day, it is believed that wearing these symbols can protect a person and enhance the power of their spirits. Examples of these symbols are the Celtic spirals which denote eternity and immortality, the trinity knots of the Celtic three-fold goddess, and the chevron of strength.

Where to Get Celtic-Inspired Pendants

If you want to add a few pieces of Celtic-inspired pendants for your jewellery collection, you can get them from any silver jewelry stores that specialise in them. If you cannot find silver jewelry stores that sell Celtic pendants in your locale, you can always search for these silver jewelry stores online.

Many Celtic-inspired pendants come in silver, but you can always buy them in gold to match with your gold chains. Always remember that when matching jewellery, you need to pair gold with gold and silver with silver. That is a cardinal rule in fashion. The only exemption to this rule is if the piece that does not match is something that you cannot go without, such as your wedding ring or your favourite timepiece.

Gold chains are very handy pieces that you must have in your jewellery collection. You can enhance your look with these chains no matter how plain your outfit is. Moreover, you can create a style that is uniquely you by stringing your necklaces with Celtic jewellery pendants.
