Collection: Barclodiad y Gawres
Stone C3, Barclodiad y Gawres, Anglesey
This collection of tactile silver disc jewellery by Carol James (Silverfish Designs) is based on unique and ancient rock art found in the Anglesey.
In Carol's ow words: "Barclodiad y Gawres (meaning the Giantess' apronful) is a passage grave which lies on a small promontory overlooking a beautiful, rugged coastline near Rhosneiger on the Island of Anglesey. It was excavated in 1953 and has since been rather unsympathetically reconstructed to include a concrete dome and dry stone walling around the entrance and passage. The original position of the entrance would have looked out towards Holyhead.
"This is one of the most impressive decorated monuments in the UK. The chamber contains six highly decorated uprights incorporating pecked zig zags, spirals, lozenges and serpentine lines. Interestingly all decoration faces into the central part of the main gallery meaning the patterns on the stones could only have been viewed by those inside the chamber, i.e. the dead or members of society allowed access to the chamber."
