The Gleninsheen Collar or Gorget is a spectacular late Bronze Age gold neck ornament discovered in 1930 at Gleninsheen in County Clare. Created around 800-700BCE and weighing 276g, or 0.61lbs, this fascinating piece is now on display at the National Museum of Ireland.
From the massive to the mini, this sweet sterling silver necklace and stud earring set follows the shape of the gorget and is designed as a talisman of ancient Irish ingenuity, creativity, and flair. The history of Ireland is one of artistry, craftsmanship, and mastery; let this design ground and inspire you with the millennia of resourcefulness in your lineage.
The pendant measures a dainty 0.86" tall, including its bale, and 0.55" across, while the earrings measure 0.35" tall and 0.27" wide. Although small, this is a delicate design with mighty meaning. It would make a thoughtful gift for the artist in your life, or for a loved one starting a long-term learning project. Made in Ireland and hallmarked at the historic Dublin Castle Assay Office as your guarantee of quality, it will arrive beautifully packaged for you to enjoy or to gift.
The necklace includes your choice of a 16-inch or 18-inch sterling silver cable chain. If you would prefer something longer or heavier, choose from our selection of handpicked sterling silver chains that pair perfectly with this piece.
