The Celtic Animals

This animal pendant range has been created because I felt that most of the Celtic jewellery these days did not do them any favours.

These pendants have a matted/roughed up silver background, making them look more stone-like, symbolizing their connection with nature, the land and the past. The animals figures are raised from the rough base, with a smooth surface and accented with 18kt gold. These designs are based on a modern-day blend of Pictish and late Celtic styling.

The range is available world-wide through the PeterStone Company as the 'Ancient Celtic Collection'; [link]

Newest Promotion!

Thu Nov 26, 2009, 1:38 AM







Gearing up for the holidays we thought that it would be grand if Imbas Creations offered another discount on our apparel store. But we've had the free shipping (with much success), and we've had the bulk items discount. So what would be suitable for the up and coming gift-giving days? Well, how about a whole %25 off of all our apparel items!

Coupon code SAVE25 will save you up to 25% off your subtotal. This offer is good starting today, November 25 through Sunday, November 29.


And now, have some legal jargon ;)

*You must enter coupon code SAVE25 before completing checkout. Your subtotal must meet the minimum of $25.00 to receive the discount. While your entire subtotal qualifies you for the promotion, your entire subtotal may not be eligible for the discount due to varying partner commissions (sorry for the confusion). The maximum qualifying discount will be AUTOMATICALLY calculated by the website. Discount is only applied to the qualifying subtotal and does not include shipping, taxes, or additional charges. Offer valid from 11/25/2009 to 11/29/2009 11:59 PM MST. This offer may not be combined with any other Imbas Printfection promotional or discount offers. Orders placed with this discount may be delayed beyond normal estimated ship dates, no refunds or discounts will be given for orders delayed under this promotion

What does ‘Imbas’ mean or stand for?
In Dúil Bélrai;
'Imbas’ noun
(sean-ghaeilge/old irish)
Divinatory skill, encompassing knowledge which illuminates, fore-knowledge, inspiration, magic lore, prophetic power

The new name for our company took quite a bit of searching. I wanted something that reflected my main inspiration, as well as my own personal beliefs. Next to that we had to find a name that would not alienate people, but at the same time have enough power to create interest.

Eventually it came to us with the very meaning of the word itself; Imbas Creations. My belief. My inspiration.

Usage of Artwork

All personal and non-profit work is generally allowed. The public is free to download and save my work onto their computer if they wish. They are also allowed to re-post the artwork as long as my copyright notice remains intact AND visible. The artwork may not be edited other than resizing alterations. You are allowed to use my artwork for personal icons and banners, but do put my name back on it plus a link to this website. DO NOT link images directly off my website, as this steals my bandwidth.

You are NOT allowed to re-sell my work, pretend it was you that made it or heavily reference off my artwork. If you wish to re-sell my work you can visit the ‘Licensing and Wholesale’ information page to see how to obtain permission to do so.

All violations of my copyright will be dealt with accordingly.

Tattoo

I receive a lot of tattoo requests from people wanting to know if they can use a certain image for the purpose of a personal tattoo. By all means, go right ahead! I do request two things from anyone considering to use my artwork for the purpose of body-decoration. Because my artwork is my income I would like to ask anyone who wants to get a certain image tattooed on themselves to send me a wee donation. This can be whatever amount you feel fit, a small payment to support the artist. The second thing I ask is if people could send me a picture of the finished result, as I do love seeing the finished result!

Commissioning

I am indeed available for commissions, please see the commission tab on the main website for more information.

Licensing and Wholesale
