Celtic Inspiration

This weekend I was inspired by the Dutch Celts!

These grave goods from Drente in the Netherlands are on display in the 'Hunebed Centrum' in Borger: gold and silver torcs, amber necklaces found in graves from around 450 BC...

The craftmanship is amazing, especially considering they were made about 2500 years ago.

I wonder what they will inspire me to make next.
Click on the pictures to see them in detail!

The funny thing was, that the dolls in the Celtic exhibition wore exactly the same moccasins I bought at www.medievalmoccassins.com in California some weeks ago...small world!
