The Signature range from Boru is a unique, contemporary take on tradition. Modern design meets
Irish heritage.
The Ogham alphabet is the earliest form of Irish writing. The characters consist of a series of
lines and notches scored across a long stem. It was usually read from bottom to top. It is named
after the warrior Ogma, God of Eloquence and Literature. There are over 350 Ogham stones still
standing in Ireland. The Triquetra predates Christianity and was the Celtic symbol of the Goddess
Odin. The symbol decorates our illuminated manuscripts such as The Book of Kells and is found on
Celtic crosses and Celtic stones all around the country.
The Trinity Knot has been adopted from ancient Celtic art by Christianity as a symbol of the Holy
Trinity; Father, Son & Holy Spirit. To the Celts it is believed to have meant many things; mind,
body, spirit; earth, sea and sky and beginning, middle and end - continuity. The Trinity Knot is
the most well known and loved of all Celtic knots and in modern times has been given as a token of
promise; to love, to honour and to protect.
Boru has created a unique range of Ogham jewellery translating traditional Irish love quotes into
this ancient alphabet. 'Mo Anam Cara' - My Soul Mate - is written in the ancient Ogham alphabet on
this ring and is decorated to the sides by the Trinity knot. The design on this ring goes 3/4 way
around the band.
