☘️Description Celtic Shield Wedding Ring. This band is a beautiful design inspired by the exquisite detail on The Ardagh Chalice. There are other Celtic Shield rings, but my design is unique. It has a deeper detail, is thicker and is almost twice as heavy as the other options, but it is priced better. This wedding ring is detailed with a highly polished finish - to purchase the polished version (as seen in the last photo of this listing), please click the following link: https://www.etsy.com/ie/listing/638879815/celtic-shield-ring-polished-celtic ☘️About the Design Dating back to the 8th Century, The Ardagh Hoard is a collection of 8th Century Irish Christian metalwork consisting of The Ardagh Chalice, a plainer stemmed cup in copper-alloy, and four brooches. The best-known piece of the hoard is The Ardagh Chalice. The chalice is a large, two-handled silver cup decorated with gold, gilt bronze, brass, lead pewter and enamel, assembled from 354 separate pieces; this complex construction is typical of early Christian Irish metalwork. The Ardagh hoard is on display in the National Museum of Ireland. ☘️Specifications: Width 5mm Weight: Sterling Silver - 6.6 grams 10k Gold - 8 grams 14k Gold - 8.7 grams 18k Gold - 9.9 grams Palladium - 7.6 grams Platinum - 14 grams Width 7mm Weight: Sterling Silver - 8 grams 10k Gold - 9.6 grams 14k Gold - 10.5 grams 18k Gold - 12.0 grams Palladium - 9.5 grams Platinum - 17.0 grams Available in sizes: 5 (I) - 14 (Z+2) (Any other size upon request). ☘️See many more ring styles with the Celtic Shield in my shop.
