Mens T – Heron Gates

The intricate knot-work herons form a set of heavenly ‘gates’. Birds were considered to be messengers of the gods by The Celts as they could travel between Heaven and Earth. The Book of Kells features many beautiful birds in this style. The Book of Kells is a national treasure of Ireland, kept in Trinity College, Dublin. It is an ancient manuscript containing intricately illustrated gospels by monks as far back as the 6th century. This is an original design by Lisa, who has paid homage to the monk’s painstaking work by creating these knotted birds!
