Knotwork Designs.

Adaptions added to one Knotwork and called by the same name can become confusing. Take the Triquetra or another name the trinity Knot. It the same knot but someone decided to call it by another! as I said it can be confusing. This Celtic Triquetra design figure composed of three interlaced arcs, or (equivalently) three overlapping vesicae Pesci’s lens shapes. Then by introducing the interlacing circle it looks different.

Going back to the Celtic Cross, the Circle of the cross represented the sun, and worshipped by the pagans and celts alike. When the Romans brought Christianity, they changed the circle to represent Christian faith.

The triquetra is a use of any figure consisting of three arcs including a pinwheel design of the type called the triskeles. Such symbols become frequent from about the fourth century BC. The triquetra, found in Northern Europe resembles the valknut. A design of three interlacing triangles, found in the same context. It is a recurring theme in the secondary phase of Anglo-Saxon sceatta production.

A good example from early medieval stonework is at the Anglo-Saxon frith stool at Hexham Abbey. The original intention by the early artists is unknown and experts warn against over-interpretation. The triquetra is often used artistically as a design element when Celtic knotwork is used, especially in association with the modern Celtic Nations. The triquetra, also known as the trinity knot.

Triquerta stud earrings are also available to make a beautiful a set.
