The Trinity knot, or triquetra, is among the most recognisable symbols to emerge from Scotland's Celtic heritage, its three interlocking arcs forming a continuous, unbroken line that has appeared in Pictish stonework and Scottish metalwork for over a millennium. Its associations with eternity and the indivisibility of threefold existence have given it a resonance that extends well beyond its decorative origins. The pairing of the triquetra with the heart form is a natural one, the symbolic geometry of the knotwork sitting within the open heart as both a visual and meaningful complement. As a drop earring format, the generous heart outline provides a naturally elegant frame that moves well with wear.
Each earring presents a smooth, rounded open heart outline as its primary frame, its curves generous and boldly defined, tapering to a neat point at the base. The heart tube is substantial in section, giving the outer frame a strong, well-proportioned presence. Within the interior, a small Trinity knot sits centrally in the lower half, its three looping arcs interlocking with quiet precision, the form sitting freely within the open heart rather than connecting to its edges. The contrast between the clean, uncluttered expanse of the heart frame and the compact intricacy of the knotwork below gives each earring a composed, balanced quality. The silver throughout is finished to a high mirror polish. Fish hook fitting above.
Approximately 3.5g per pair. 925 sterling silver. Fish hook fitting.
