Bird jewerly a symbol of freedom

Bird jewerly is a symbol of freedom, lightness and well-being. In many cultures, they were totems, the embodiment of the divine. For example, in the myths of Ancient Greece, Zeus appeared more than once in the form of a white eagle. A gentle dove from the time of the Old Testament is a good messenger.

It is not surprising that birds became the protagonists of a variety of decorations, playing the role of a talisman. Today we choose jewelry with those birds that we like, without thinking about their symbolic meaning and the fact that they give out our character to those around us.

Swans represent love and loyalty. In most cases, they are embodied in clear diamonds. In the Animaux de Collection by Boucheron, you can see a black swan bracelet made of black sapphires.
