ORAN’S CIRCLE PENDANT
Usgar Bràghad Cearcall Òrain
Gorgeous single circle pendant on chain, featuring double-sided patterns that bring together Maeve and Mhairi’s shared vision of the Ì Mo Chridhe collection. On one side, a pattern created by Mhairi inspired by Celtic sketches of her relative Iain McCormick, the Ritchie’s apprentice. On the other side, a new trinity pattern created by Maeve, inspired by Celtic stone carvings in the beautiful St Oran’s Chapel. St Oran’s Chapel is the oldest building on Iona, next to the Iona Abbey, dating back to around 1150, featuring a beautiful carved stone archway as well as important historic stones within.
When Maeve first visited Iona in 2021, to meet Mhairi and discuss how to build a beautiful legacy collection to the Ritchies, St Oran’s chapel was the first place Mhairi took Maeve to experience the very heart of Iona, and this very special shared story grew fresh shoots.
This pendant is oxidised sterling silver. It measures 14mm by 3mm at the widest points, and comes on an oxidised 0.7mm mirror link box chain to match the pendant finish, in your choice of 16” or 18” length chain. Each piece is Hallmarked Sterling Silver by the Edinburgh Assay Office in Scotland.
