The Shamrock is an iconic symbol of Ireland! It was Saint Patrick that used the shamrock to convert the Irish people to Christianity, using the three petals of the plant to explain the Holy Trinity: the Father, the Son & the Holy Spirit. This shamrock ornament would make a nice addition to your family Christmas tree or to display on a stand or wall year round. It’s a symbol of Irish pride! Crafted of compressed peat moss**, this ornament is made OF Ireland. The shamrock design is decorated with three Celtic trinity knots. Measures approx 2.75”H x 2.75”W
**Peat moss, or turf, is a natural material. Each piece will have unique features. Sporadic lines, pits and little chips are not considered defects - it is all part of the process in making these ornaments of compressed peat moss.
