A Meaningful Gift Is A Memorable One
Each Valentine’s Day we exchange chocolates, flowers, and other special gifts to our loved ones, especially lovers. How this tradition came about dates back to ancient Rome and was inspired by St. Valentine. The true legend of St. Valentine is rather unclear, as there are multiple stories that explain how he became associated with love. One story describes that St. Valentine performed wedding ceremonies for couples in secret, resisting the previous ban on marriages. As a result of his actions, he was killed. Each legend suggests that he was a very romantic and sympathetic saint, inspiring others to celebrate him on the day of his death, February 14.
Today, we celebrate our love with family, friends, and romantic partners on this day. It is traditional to send heartfelt cards and meaningful gifts that express our affection. There is no better way to show love than with a gift that has a deeper message, and jewelry just happens to symbolize love perfectly.

Birds
Birds seen in earrings and necklaces make for great meaningful gifts. While all birds in general represent freedom because of their ability to fly, they also can symbolize hope, love, and the soul. Cardinals in particular symbolize faithfulness and loyalty, some of the most valued traits that keep relationships strong. They are known to be good omens that bring good luck. The tiny hummingbird is a symbol of joy and love, very fitting themes for this special day. In some cultures, these remarkable creatures are believed to be deliverers of love. There is much deeper meaning behind jewelry that features birds than one might think.

Flowers
While flowers alone are a beautiful gift to give for Valentine’s Day, they will last much longer when worn everyday as jewelry. During the Victorian Era, many people were interested in learning the deeper meaning behind flowers. Flowers were even used to communicate with others when words couldn’t be used. The symbolic meaning of flowers during the Victorian era has mainly remained the same today. Asters are a symbol of love and sunflowers symbolize faithfulness and unconditional love, both perfect flowers to express feelings. Of course, red roses are the classic Valentine’s Day gift as they represent love and romance, a perfect addition to any piece of jewelry.
