Dara Knot

Roots of the Oak Tree

Strength that is all underground: what holds through a storm is the part no one ever sees.


The Dara Knot derives its name from the Irish word 'doire', meaning oak tree. The design features a continuous interlacing path that represents the complex, unseen root system of the sacred oak, which the Celts revered as a symbol of leadership, wisdom, and destiny. Just as the oak draws its massive strength from its hidden roots, the Dara Knot reminds us that our true power and resilience lie beneath the surface, anchored deeply in our heritage and inner spirit.
