Why Bows Are Here to Stay
It's no secret that I'm a bit bow obsessed over here, and I'm sure you've seen that bow jewellery trends have been having a moment too!
But for anyone who thinks that bows are merely a passing trend, think again! Bow jewellery has always been a beloved motif, symbolising love, strength, and elegance. It’s a timeless jewellery motif with a rich history and enduring appeal.
Bow History
From as far back as Roman times, when the popular bow or knot symbol is believed to have originated from the practice of tying a string around the finger as a reminder of something or someone, to the Georgian and Victorian eras and modern interpretations, bow jewellery has a fascinating evolution. This highlights its historical significance and showcases why bows are a timeless jewellery motif.
Back in the Georgian and Victorian eras, bows in jewellery weren’t just a stylish choice—they were packed with emotional meaning. During these periods, the bow became a powerful symbol of love and commitment. Wearing a bow was a language of love. Where you wore it—around your neck or close to your heart—could signal everything from playful flirtation to deep, romantic interest.
More Than Romance
But bows weren’t just about romance. They also stood for unity and strength, representing the strong bonds in meaningful relationships. This rich history shows how the bow motif wasn’t just about looking good; it was a way to express personal and societal values, making it a lasting icon in symbolic jewellery.
This Bow Story
When I make my bow jewellery, I strive to add a fresh and exciting twist that also connects to the past. Each individual bow in my collections is meticulously handcrafted, ensuring that each piece has its own unique character and story, reflecting the individuality and uniqueness of its wearer. By incorporating sustainable practices, like using recycled precious metals, I make sure that contemporary bow jewellery designs are not only beautiful but also eco-friendly. This approach allows me to create unique bow jewellery that resonates deeply with those seeking to express their personal narrative.
This is why bow jewellery is not just an accessory; it is a reflection of the wearer’s spirit and character. It's a statement of who they are, where they've been, and who and what they cherish. Wearing a piece of bow jewellery is a choice to stand out, to wear your story, and to embrace the beauty of individuality.
