Quick Overview

The Petite St. Brigid's Cross Earrings are an excellent accessory for any Irish young lady. Saint Brigid of Kildare is revered as the patron saint of Ireland as well as infants just entering the world. Mary of Gael and the Bride of the Isles are both names that have been given to Saint Brigid.

Did you know that the first of February is the feast of Saint Brigid, which in Irish is known as Lá Fhéile Bride? As it is also the festival of Imbolc, which celebrates the beginning of spring, today is the first day of spring in Ireland. On this particular day, schoolchildren all throughout Ireland are given the opportunity to create their very own St. Brigid's cross in the classroom. In the year 450 A.D., the patron saint of Ireland, Saint Brigid, was born in the town of Faughart in the county of Louth. It is probable that Saint Brigid is most recognized for her work in the county of Kildare, where she established a monastery and convent that went on to become a thriving center for Christian religion and education long after she had passed away.

The traditional woven cross is said to have originated during a visit St. Bridget made to a dying Chieftain in which she wove it from rushes on the floor to show the significance of Christian faith.
