It's a matter of personal choice really. I wear/use both. I love my pentacles, but the "public" has a very negative and ignorant opinion of them. Those I keep from the public eye; my triquetra, however, I wear proudly always. No one has ever given it a second look other than to ask about the stone in the center (green amber). I also have a triquetra tattoo.

I believe that both, the Triquetra and the Pentacle are nice. Personally I wear a Pentacle necklace because where I live it is difficult to find the Triquetra.
But it is more a matter of personal choice. I am happy with my Pentacle, but I will also get the Triquetra as soon as possible.

Neither are "Wiccan" strictly speaking. The Pentacle comes from Ceremonial Magick & the Triquetra is a very old Celtic symbol of the Triple Goddess.
Wear what you feel right wearing & wear it with pride, not because it looks "nice".

I wear a Pentacle Necklace and Ring. I also have a round glass window that has a triquetra stained (blue,purple and green) in the middle of it, so i like them both on appearance

I think both are beautiful. I would wear both if I could find a triquetra, but for now I'll stick to my favorite piece of jewelry...my Pentacle.

I noticed when I wear the Triquetra people don't give me the "you are the devil" look.
I still prefer Pentacle, because it's my symbol of Protection.

I love the pentacle. i wear a large one on a necklace all the time. altho personally i think the triquetra is prettier its quite nice sometimes to have people comment and start conversations about the pentacle as it is more widely recognised.

I love my pentacle, but you can probably get away with wearing the triquetra more in mixed company as most people will not associate it with "devil worship." Most people will probably not know that it stands for anything.
I wear the pentacle.

I have just looked them up, and from a laymans point of view would have to say I think the Triquetra is the prettier of the two.

I like the Triquetra more. I just think it is pretty and reminds me of the Goddess more.
