This dramatic pewter Celtic Torc, featuring a serpent head and the head of a wild boar, was handcrafted in Cornwall. Animals were often incorporated into Celtic Knots (Zoomorphic Knots) when the animal possessed a trait that the Celts admired.
The serpent was considered immortal and regarded as a symbol of rebirth and wisdom, as it was reborn with each new skin.
The wild boar was considered a fierce warrior who defended itself to the death, being ferocious and courageous.
Torcs were worn both on the neck and arms of people of high status such as Chieftains or Warriors.

Dating to to about 600 AD, we photographed this Ogham stone in Kilmalkedar Church, on the Dingle peninsular, in Co. Kerry. on our last trip to Ireland. The ogham carving reads "ẠṆM MẠỊLE-INBIR/ MACI BROCANN" - "Name of Máel-Inbher son of Broccán"
"Evleen (spelling might be incorrect) was amazing. She being from Ireland, her husband from Scotland [sic ... Wales] are authentic in both Celtic apparel and the history of why & how authentic Celt apparel and accessories are worn.
Celt Wares was my best experience in customer service and the care of fitting me out in my new full Celtic apparel from kilt all the way to my hose."
What an amazing experience! Celt Wares, though several hours from my home, is "my" Celtic store (in person or online). Thank you again, Evleen!"
