The Story
Formed over 900 million years ago, Connemara marble is known as “Ireland’s gemstone”. Its distinctive green tones give each pendant individual character, while marcasite adds a subtle, vintage-inspired sparkle. Four Trinity Knots come together to form the circle that defines the Celtic Cross, bringing two enduring elements of Celtic design into one intricate pendant. As a longstanding Solvar design, its appeal lies in this combination of natural Irish stone, traditional symbolism and detailed silverwork.

About us
Margo and Gustaf Obernik
Founded in 1941 by Gustaf Obernik, Solvar stemmed from his fascination with Ireland's heritage and the surge in tourism he witnessed at the Gap of Dunloe, Co Killarney. This ignited his passion to design and create jewellery that captured the essence of Ireland.
Dublin City
Our humble beginnings started with just two employees at No.10 Harcourt Street in Dublin City. Mr Obernik quickly gained recognition for his beautiful pieces inspired by Celtic designs and Irish history.
Handcrafted with skill
