| Description |
| In an age of complex manners and rules, Victorians used symbolism to speak a secret language. They were highly influenced by Romanticism in their jewelry fabrication. Today, as in the Victorian Era, a knot symbolized the sentimental love between the giver and the wearer. The association of knots with love, friendship, and affection dates back to antiquity. The symbolism behind the act of 'tying a knot' is one of binding. Thus it is no surprise that it became a metaphor for one’s commitment towards love. This little Victorian knot charm may be tiny but is sweet as can be. In the center sits a small seed pearl (pearls epitomized innocence, purity, humility & harmony). This charm was once a stick pin and has been converted into a pendant. |
