The Meaning Behind Popular Jewellery Gift Symbols

The Meaning Behind Popular Jewellery Symbols

At Tied By Love, we believe that jewellery gifts holds more than sparkle—it holds stories. Whether it's a bracelet gifted on a special birthday, a necklace to remember someone we miss, or a keychain gift that makes us smile every morning—we design every piece with meaning at its heart.


Symbols have a quiet power. They say something when words fall short. They remind us who we are, what we’ve overcome, and who we hold close. Here's a deeper look at some of the most loved symbols in our jewellery and what they can represent for you or someone you love.

3. The Moon & Stars

There’s something comforting about looking up at the night sky—it reminds us we’re never truly alone. The moon and stars are symbols of hope, light in darkness, dreams, and deep emotional bonds.


We love these designs for pieces given during hard times, or to remind someone to keep believing in themselves. They’re also popular for mums and daughters, or friends who live far apart. A little reminder that you're both under the same sky, no matter the distance. 🌙⭐

4. The Elephant

Elephants represent wisdom, patience, and strength—but most of all, they symbolise family. They’re protective, gentle, and loyal to the ones they love.


Elephant-themed gifts are often chosen to honour strong women, parents, or someone who’s stood by you through thick and thin. It's a lovely way to say “thank you for being my rock.”

"Jewellery isn’t just worn—it’s felt. Every symbol carries a story, a whisper of love, loss, strength or hope, wrapped in something beautiful."

5. The Butterfly

Butterflies are symbols of transformation, growth, and new beginnings. They're delicate but powerful—a reminder that change can be beautiful.


These are popular gifts for someone going through a big life shift—whether it’s graduation, moving away, healing, or rediscovering who they are. A butterfly is a whisper of encouragement: You’re becoming something beautiful.

6. The Wolf

Wolves are powerful symbols of loyalty, instinct, and inner strength. Often living in close-knit family packs, they also represent unity, protection, and the importance of strong bonds.


Gifting someone a wolf charm or accessory is a meaningful way to say, "I trust you," or "You are fiercely loved." It's a bold symbol for anyone who walks their own path, protects their circle, and stays true to their heart.

7. The Hummingbird

Tiny but full of energy, the hummingbird is a symbol of joy, resilience, and the beauty of the present moment. These vibrant little birds remind us to savour the sweetness in life and keep moving forward, no matter the obstacles.


Hummingbird jewellery is perfect for someone who inspires you with their positivity, or as a gentle reminder to stay hopeful and find joy in the little things.

Jewellery That Speaks From the Heart

We believe every gift should feel like more than a thing—it should feel like a hug. That’s why we carefully design each piece not just to look good, but to mean something special to the person receiving it.


Whether you’re shopping for someone you love or treating yourself, you’re not just choosing a product—you’re choosing a message. A memory. A little piece of love, Tied By Love. 💝
