On the Hunt for Easter Jewelry?

Come Sunday, April 4th, many people across the world will be celebrating the Easter holiday, one of the most important holidays in the Christian calendar. The many different Easter traditions around the world are beautiful, special and interesting, but we thought it would also be beautiful, special, and interesting to take a look at some of the well-known symbols of Easter as jewelry. We had fun with this. Hope you do too!

The Easter Egg

One of the mostly widely known symbols of Easter is the Easter egg, but the egg also has a lot of historical symbolism that predates its association with Easter; historically, it has symbolized life and fertility. For Easter, the egg symbolizes emergence and resurrection. This beautiful egg-shaped pendant with round accents stones artfully decorating its “shell’ reminds us of the tradition of dying and decorating eggs for the Easter holiday.

The Easter Lily

The lily is associated with Easter because of the belief that lilies sprung up around the cross used for the crucifixion. They are also symbolic of new life and purity. These special flower-style huggies have beautiful accent stones in a bead setting on every other petal.

The Dogwood Tree

The gorgeous dogwood tree blooms every year around the time of Easter with attractive light yellow flowers. Wood from the dogwood tree is also supposed to have been used for the crucifixion. One of our popular jewelry pieces is this diamond engagement ring with a large princess-cut center stone set within an intricate tree design and surrounded by accent stones at the top of the branches.

Palm Branches

Palm branches are used to celebrate Palm Sunday, which falls one week before Easter Sunday. Palm branches have a historic association with goodness and victory and are mentioned in the Bible several times. For Easter, they are associated with the blessing and the procession of palms. This pendant is a lovely example of palm branches and is an elegant piece of Easter jewelry.

Butterflies

Butterflies are another symbol closely associated with Easter. Their life cycle is seen as metaphorical of the resurrection. This graceful and delicate butterfly ring will be glamorous worn on Easter and all year long.

The Easter Bunny

Of course, no Easter is complete without the Easter Bunny, so we couldn’t leave Easter bunny jewelry off this list. As a prominent symbol of Easter, bunnies have long been a symbol of fertility which is likely how the association got started. Whatever its origins, it’s hard to deny the fun of the Easter bunny. The cute bunny pendant you see below will make any Easter outfit a little more lively.
