History of Ireland Jewelry
Our History of Ireland jewelry is made exclusively by the original designer, Michael David Hilliar. Each piece bears his initials, MDH.
Move your mouse over the symbols below to read the meaning of the History of Ireland panels.
The symbols are inspired by the panels of the Celtic high cross. Each period of Irish history is represented by a separate icon, from Saint Patrick and the Round Tower symbolizing early Christianity, to Viking Warriors, Norman Soldiers, King William and the Union Jack. The terrible potato famine is represented by a skeletal icon and the Emigrant Ship. Ireland's independence is marked by the G.P.O. and the Partition of the island.
