Celtic Sterling Silver Penannular

This beautiful Celtic Sterling Silver Penannular is a one-of-a-kind sterling silver clasp pin featuring an intricate Celtic knot design. The piece bears a pair of hallmarks, neither of which is legible. We estimate it comes form the early to mid-20th century. The pin measures just over 1.75 inches across. A truly unique treasure and an excellent example of Celtic design.

The Penannular

Popular from the British Isles in the 8th and 9th centuries (though debuting several hundred years prior), the penannular serves as a practical yet beautiful means of clasping a cloak or wrap. This unisex design features a broken ring and a free moving pin designed to pierce and hold loosely woven fabrics. Also known as the Celtic Brooch, the penannular can be found in cultures from the early Romans to the Viking invaders.
