Who wears Celtic jewelry?

[mattexian]

The only jewelry I've got is a simple gold wedding band and a pewter Celtic Cross on a neck cord. My wife has a Claddagh puzzle ring as her wedding band.

I seldom wear any jewlery. I do have some cufflinks and a ponytail holder.

The two I have are the Chieftan and the Bear. Not daily wear, but they do dress up a kilt and shirt nicely. Living where I do, though, I have had to explain that they are an ancient symbol of the Celtic warrior class and thus a token of nobility, and not an item associated with certain alternative lifestyle communities.

I have the wolf, and wear it pretty much constantly. I've had to explain thats its not a snake (the braided brass apparently looks kinda like one), that its not a dragon, and no I didn't by it here in town.
I am curious as to what kind of alternative lifestyles people would think they represent, since I am gay (and thats usually what that phrase means), and I have never had anyone gay or straight make a connection between my torc and my sexuality.

Let's keep to the topic of what celtic jewelry folks wear.

I wear a gold Celtic Cross earring. It was given to me by my wife. Only my wedding band other than that regularly.

I don't wear a lot of jewelery, but I do wear a celtic cross necklace.

I've worn Mjollnir (Thor's Hammer) for quite a while. I cast it a cuttle fish bone in sterling silver, put it on a four strand leather braid.
It Celtic enough but that's a long discussion already entered into as some remember.
I almost never take it off.

On my wedding day, one of my groomsmen gave me a gold "shamrock" earring to wear.
A bit silly, but we had a good laugh for the day. :rolleyes:
