To the ancient inhabitants of Ireland, the spiral was used to represent their sun. Here at Siopa, we have incorporated this classic Celtic symbol into a range of exclusively designed Limited Edition jewelry which includes this sterling silver pendant measuring 2.5cm with an 18cm chain. Each piece is handcrafted in Ireland and hallmarked at Dublin Castle
This collection of jewelry was specially commissioned to commemorate the state visit of American President Barak Obama to Ireland in May 2011. It combines the dual ancestral heritage of President Obama - a traditional Celtic image to represent his Irish roots in County Offaly and a tribal image from the President’s father’s tribe, the Luo.
