Heart – love and compassion

The heart symbol is one of the most recognizable symbols worldwide. It stands for love, romance, compassion, loyalty, and friendship. An earring with a heart symbol symbolizes an open heart and a willingness to give love.

Four-leaf clover – luck and protection

The four-leaf clover brings luck in many cultures – they only occur on three out of every 10,000 clovers! In Celtic times, wearing a four-leaf clover offered protection against evil spirits. Today it stands for luck, joy, and hope.

Infinity – eternal love or friendship

The infinity symbol stands for eternal love or friendship – an endless loop with no beginning or end. Wearing an infinity piece of jewelry shows dedication to another without saying a word.
