Celtic Cross Square Sticker

The Celtic cross is a Christian cross featuring a nimbus or ring that emerged in Ireland and Britain in the Early Middle Ages. A type of ringed cross, it became widespread through its use in the stone high crosses erected across the islands, especially in regions evangelised by Irish missionaries, from the 9th through the 12th centuries. A staple of sacred art, the Celtic cross is essentially a Latin cross with a nimbus surrounding the intersection of the arms and stem.The form gained new popularity during the Celtic Revival of the 19th century and has spread well beyond Ireland.
