Thinking about current artwork and design it can be difficult to think of things inspired by celtic artwork other than straight celtic designs done currently, such as jewelry and other things. Vera Bradley bags have always somewhat overwhelmed me with their intricate curly designs. I got the same feeling of overwhelmed-ness (definitely not a word) when I looked at the Celtic manuscripts. I think the repeating, overlapping patterns are reminiscent of these illustrations.
