Every Irish Christmas tree should have a Celtic cross ornament, and this one is a lovely choice. Made of Irish turf, it’s like hanging a real piece of Ireland on your tree. It is also an ornament that you can display year round, hanging on the wall or from an ornament display piece. The Celtic cross is a symbol that has been around since ancient times. Saint Patrick used the cross to help convert the Irish pagans to Christianity. The cross shape reflects the cross that Jesus died upon and the circle behind represents the eternal love of God. This Celtic cross ornament makes a nice gift for a variety of occasions. Measures approx 3.5”L x 2.5”W
