The silver metal Celtic Cross is on around piece of wood that has vertical stripes of green and a pale whitish green. The back side of the ornament says in green print, "Celtic Cross. Though the Celtic Cross is basically a Latin Cross with a circle that intersects it, the symbolism is much more. Both the circle or halo and the intricate knot designs have no beginning and no end, reminding us that God's love is never ending. The Celtic Cross has come to be a tremendous symbol of the Irish culture and Christian faith. It is one of the most traditional symbols of Irish faith and pride."
