Triskeles Ornament

Triskeles Ornament. The Book of Kells, a large format manuscript codex of the Latin text of the Gospels, is generally thought to have originated at the Monastery of Iona, Scotland. About 807, after a series of devastating Viking raids, it was taken to the Monastery of Kells, Ireland. Triskeles are associated with the Trinity and are a common design element found scattered throught the text; at the ends of lines or between lines. Average Size 3" x 5" Due to the hand casting and proprietary staining process, each of my plaques is unique. Each cross comes with a hanger embedded in the stone. The cross comes with a descriptive tag describing the original stone, explanation of the design or information on where the cross is located.
