Brooches & Cloakpins
St Justin jewellery consists of authentic reproductions of traditional Celtic designs used in jewellery, decorative stonework and the adornment of manuscripts. eg THE SPIRAL is a natural form of growth. Spirals have been a part of nature for millions of years as can be seen in Ammonite Fossils. In every culture it has become a symbol of eternal life. The Celtic monks painted whorls representing the continuous creation and dissolution of the world; the passages between the spirals symbolized the divisions between life, death and rebirth. At the centre there is complete balance, where heaven and earth are joined. Sunwise and antisunwise spirals respectively represent the inner and outer evolution of the spirit, winter and summer, dark and light, contraction and expansion.
