What is a Triquetra?
Hi
A triquetra is a three cornered shape which is used as a symbol in many cultures, ranging from traditional Christianity to pagan Celtic traditions. You may be most familiar with the triquetra in the role of Celtic art, where it appears extensively in a wide array of situations, from carved headstones to motifs in Celtic paintings. This design can be utilitarian and very simple, or incredibly ornate and quite beautiful, in the case of complex Celtic knotwork.
Typically, a triquetra is formed by interlocking three identical shapes to create a distinctive three-cornered pattern. Archaeological evidence suggests that the triquetra has been an important symbol in Celtic art for centuries, and it was also extensively used in Germanic paganism. Triquetras can be found on many rune stones, for example, and they also appear in wooden and stone carvings found throughout Northern Europe.
Thanks

Different Types of Wood Office Furniture?
Wood office furniture is available in a wide range of materials and styles to suit many different tastes as well as budgets. Wood desks, tables and shelving units designed for home offices or commercial spaces are sold in modern as well as traditional looks. Dark, light and every wood finish color in between is available in hardwood or less expensive wood office furniture.
Most wood office furniture falls into the category of either modern or traditional in style. Modern wood office pieces tend to have clean lines without detailed trim. Unlike traditional wood office desks that are rectangular in shape, modern versions may be round, oval or even an irregular free-form design. Both types of office furniture are sold in a variety of colors and materials.

Diamond Dust
Diamond dust is essentially the leftover material from cutting diamonds. It is extremely hard and has a wide variety of uses. Items made with diamond dust are considered to be of high quality and are used in a variety of things in various industries from construction to the beauty industry.
One such use is for the blade of a saw. Diamond blade saws, used in construction, can be circular, blade or frame set. The diamond dust inset in the edges of these saws make them incredibly sharp and able to cut through hard surfaces such as granite, marble and tile. Diamond dust is also used for industrial drills, grinders and files.
