Celtic Animals Tapestries
Description: In ancient times, brother and sister - Mani and Sol ( Moon and Sun ) sometimes stopped their run in the sky, to see what happens down, on ground, and lingered for a long time in one place. Many were unhappy with this.. Therefore, Odin, the father of the gods, gave them two shadowers, two giant wolves. This was sons of Fenrir - Hati "He Who Hates", or "Enemy" and Skoll "Treachery". Day and night they hunt brother and sister, and when they get too close, eclipses occur..
Description: This design is based off a panel from the very famous Gundestrup Cauldron. The animals in this design are not clearly identified but possibly a wolf or dog, and a feline-like animal (I've chosen to call it a lion, but feel free to disagree!) I've recreated this in my own style making a unique take on this famous Celtic/La Tene piece of artwork!

This design is perfect for those who love the occult, cats, celtic symbols and also blue color.
Description: This latest design is of the GREEN MAN!

Description: This design is based off of a panel from the famous Celtic/La Tene style Gundestrup Cauldron. The scene depicts a god with antlers-- often identified as Cernunnos-- surrounded by various wild animals.

Description: The number three is a significant number, as it is said to represent life, death, and rebirth; the three trimesters of pregnancy; or the elements of earth, fire, and water. The Triquetra can also represent concepts such as the neo-pagan triple goddess; past, present, and future; body, mind, and soul; or the Celtic concept of land, sea, and sky. This design is for those who love cats and celtic symbols. This design is available on stickers, t-shirts, phone cases, masks, mugs, pillows and more.
