What are Celtic Belt Buckles?
Celtic art is a style of decorative art that originated from central and western Europe around 500 bc. Combining geometric and abstract art, Celtic art usually do not have perfect symmetry but manages to have a strong sense of balance. The usual feel of this type of art is a curvilinear patterns with great intricacy. These brilliant patterns has been extensively used to adorn different accessories and has been a favorite style of many different artists. Celtic art expanded to other cultures and has been one of the most influential styles. It had a lasting impact extending to influencing Carolingian, Romanesque and Gothic art.
In the olden times, this type of intricate craftsmanship has been applied on bronze work, weapons, eating and drinking equipment. Nowadays, these patterns and symbols are still used the same way. They are meant for decoration thus most people use these designs in their jewelry, other ironworks and even paintings and illustrations. Perhaps one of the best ways of how it was reinvented is the arrival of Celtic belt buckles. Belt buckles are practical and would easily enhance an ordinary ensemble.

It is very difficult to place the meanings of these symbols as they have been around for many years. This type of style broadened to different cultures and different countries that each has developed their own symbolism. Because of this, there is no one answer for the meaning they carry. For instance, the Celtic cross, which is a cross with a circle around the intersection, has also been used by Christianity. This shows how much each meaning vary from each other. The tree of life, despite having many other meanings, have also been used by Germanic tribe paganism. It seemingly plays an important role in the surviving texts and manuscripts.
