The story of Saint Dunstan and the horseshoe varies greatly depending on where you look but I like the one story where in the 10th century St. Dunstan, blacksmith at the time, was visited by the devil himself. The hoofed devil asked for a horseshoe for himself.Dunstan used iron nails to secure a red hot horseshoe tightly on one of his hooves, and the devil howled in great pain. The devil begged for Dunstan to remove the hot shoe. Dunstan agreed under one condition -- the devil must respect the horseshoe and never enter any place where one was hung above the door.

Much of what is known about St. Patrick's life has been interwoven with folklore and legend. Historians generally believe that St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, was born in Britain (not Ireland) near the end of the 4th century. At age 16 he was kidnapped by Irish raiders and sold as a slave to a Celtic priest in Northern Ireland. After toiling for six years as a shepherd, he escaped back to Britain. He eventually returned to Ireland as a Christian missionary. This sinuous design is certainly suggestive of snakes with neither head nor tail in sight but a continuous swirl.
