    I never worn any jewellery although sometimes wear a Pictish wolf brooch on my jacket or jerkin.
    However, I do enjoy making Celtic jewellery ( there's some examples here )

    I like working with silver and titanium and although the titanium is harder to work the colours that can be obtained make it worth while. The ring in the middle of this photo is probably my favorite as I was trying to create the effect of the sun bouncing off of ocean waves.


    and here's a silver and titanium part for a Harley

    I have 2 pieces I wear everyday.
    First, I have a celtic knot necklace that my wife gave me when we were
    dating. The second is a continuous celtic knot wedding band.
    Similar to this one:

    My wedding band has a Claddagh engraved in it. I wear Catholic medals under my shirt and one is a Celtic cross. When I finish up my current weight loss I am going to buy myself a Celtic knot ring for my right hand. (Down 60 lbs but still have 30 more to go.)

    I have a Celtic knotwork ring and a Claddagh ring, along with a Celtic cross necklace. I only wear them occasionally, as I'm not really much on jewelry.

    Like KML, I have a few items I wear daily. On the right hand, just two simple rings: On my index finger, a celtic knot ring and on my ring finger a Claddagh:



    The rings are silver and I've worn both of them for several years now (you can see how scratched and beat-up they are in the photo); however, I've been wearing rings like this for more than 20 years. Generally, for me, silver rings like these last anywhere from 3-5 years and I replace them when I need to.

    The only other piece of jewelry I currently wear is a St. Patrick medal around my neck that's on a stainless steel 'forever chain' (no clasp, just a continuous chain):



    On October 7, 2006 I'll be wearing this 14k white gold band on the ring finger of my left hand :

    I wear a celtic ring on my right hand, sometimes a leather band on my wrist with a Celtic design, and a knotwork necklace. The claddagh and luckenbooth are tattooed on, so I don't wear either of those as jewelry

    I have several necklaces I'm wont to wear: a silver encircled triskele, a silver triquetra (what everyone is now calling the Charmed symbol, sigh...), and a pewter greenman, all on leather cords.

    My wedding ring is a Celtic weave. I have a small silver Celtic cross pendant and a Clan Mackintosh crestbadge silver ring that I wear regularly. I also have a large silver hand made Celtic bracelet. It is special to me, especially since the piper/silversmith who made it is very ill right now. Oh yeah, and square Celtic silver cuff-links my wife gave me to wear with the PC.
