Might the old Celtic triple spiral ever be in the offing????
Is this what you have in mind? I have made a couple of Triskelion belt buckles, brass on copper, 3.5 inch diameter.

A triskelion or triskele is a symbol consisting of three interlocked spirals, or any three protrusions and a threefold rotational symmetry.
The triscele has been used since ancient times in Celtic culture to symbolize the cycle of life. It has also been a symbol for the trinity since post-pagan and medieval times in Scotland, Ireland and parts of England and Wales, and as a symbol for the three goddesses of Celtic mythology.
When looking at the symbol it is clear to see that spirals move inward therefore also being cited that each spiral symbolizes strength, honor & fortitude.
