The Celtic Shoppe is the Bay Area’s premier source for Irish,
Welch, Scottish and British heritage clothing, jewelry, and artifacts. Owners Cathy and Louis provide expert research and sourcing of
authentic and representative products for your clan/family. The Luckenbooth Heart-shaped brooches, in
vogue in the 1700s, were traditionally exchanged between lovers at betrothal.
They were subsequently pinned to a baby’s shawl to protect the child from
evil spirits. The name comes from their sales in the Luckenbooths (locked
booths) around St. Giles Cathedral on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. |
