Faith that endures, from ancient roots to modern life.

The Celtic Ichthus Necklace brings together two of the oldest symbols of faith—the Christian fish and the Celtic cross—into one distinctive design. Crafted from solid stainless steel, the intricate Celtic cross serves as the foundation, adorned with a polished Ichthus charm that carries a miniature cross within.

Each necklace is hand-assembled at Oak Haven, where the quiet strength of the oaks mirrors the enduring power of faith. The Ichthus—once a secret symbol among early Christians—here overlays the Celtic knotwork cross, bridging ancient tradition with modern devotion. Its subtle yet powerful design makes it a perfect statement of belief and heritage.

GroveTop FAQ

What are your metal integrity tests?

We take quality seriously, so each piece undergoes a series of real-world tests. We perform a vinegar test to simulate sweat exposure, a saltwater test to check resistance to corrosion, and a chlorine test to ensure durability around pool water. These tests help ensure that your jewelry is made to last in everyday conditions.

Where do your stones originate?

We source our stones from a variety of trusted suppliers around the world, focusing on quality and unique character. Many of our stones come from regions renowned for their natural beauty, and we hand-select each one to ensure it complements our designs. Whether it’s amethyst, jasper, or quartz, every stone has its own story and is chosen to bring a little extra joy from the grove to you.

Where is your wood sourced from?

We carefully select our wood from a blend of meaningful places. Much of it is olive wood sourced from Bethlehem, carrying a rich heritage. We also work with skilled artisans here in the U.S. to incorporate locally sourced woods. Each piece is chosen to reflect both the natural beauty and the heartfelt craftsmanship that we stand for.

METAL CARE, MAINTENANCE, & SAFETY

To maintain the beauty and integrity of your purchase, we recommend treating it with care. Simple maintenance practices, such as routine gentle polishing (especially 925 silver) and proper storage, can effectively preserve the longevity of your favorite pieces.

We highly recommend you review our Jewelry Care & Safety blog article.

SHIPPING & RETURNS

We strive to process and ship all orders in a timely manner, working diligently to ensure that your items are on their way to you as soon as possible. Need to return something? Just let us know.

What size are your Celtic pendants?

Each of our signature Celtic pendants is crafted to a comfortable, medium-scale size that’s ideal for everyday wear. The standard Celtic Cross design measures approximately 50mm (1.97 inches) tall and 30mm (1.18 inches) wide — about the size of a U.S. half dollar or two stacked quarters side by side.

This balanced scale allows the pieces to be large enough to showcase intricate knotwork, yet subtle enough to wear daily on a chain or keychain.
