St Ronan Gold Celtic Cross

The St Ronan Gold Celtic Cross is a striking emblem of faith and heritage, a masterful piece that melds ancient tradition with mid-twentieth-century design.

Handcrafted in the Outer Hebrides from 9ct yellow gold, this large Celtic cross is not only an object of worship but also a work of art that resonates with the rich cultural history of Scotland.

Its design, created by John Hart circa 1950–1960, is imbued with prominent Celtic motifs that add layers of symbolism and inspire a sense of timeless devotion.

Measuring approximately 96 mm in length by 53 mm in width and weighing around 23.4 g, the cross commands attention with its impressive scale.

Despite its robust presence, every detail is executed with precision and care—a testament to the skilled craftsmanship honed by generations in this storied region.

The intricate designs carved or hammered into the gold echo the endless interlacing patterns found in Celtic art, symbolising the continuum of life and spiritual eternity, a message particularly resonant for clergy and others who hold faith close to heart.

The use of 9ct yellow gold not only provides a warm, luminous quality to the piece but also ensures resilience and lasting beauty.

Each cross is hallmarked at the Edinburgh Assay Office, guaranteeing that it meets stringent standards of authenticity and quality.

This prestigious hallmark not only identifies the metal’s purity but also serves as a seal of tradition, linking the wearer to the revered legacy of Scottish goldsmithing.

Supplied in a finely crafted wooden presentation box, the St Ronan Gold Celtic Cross is prepared to be treasured as both a personal keepsake and an heirloom.

Its thoughtful packaging further accentuates the artistry and care invested in its creation, making it an ideal gift for clergy, collectors, or anyone who cherishes the spiritual symbolism of Celtic design.
