Pewter Celtic Knot Brigid's Cross Necklace
$19.99
Brigid's Cross is named after Brigid of Kildare, the only female patron saint of Ireland. Her name has several different spellings, including Brigit, Bridget, and Brighid. Brigid was a Celtic goddess who was very popular among her followers. She was the daughter of the "Dagna" - a great father-god of Ireland. Brigid left no historical record, and most information about her life and work is derived from writings by Brother Cogitosus, a monk who lived around 200 years after her birth. She is honored both as a saint in the Christian tradition, and as a Goddess of hearth and home in the Old Religion. She is a patron saint of metalworking.
