Symbolism in antique and vintage jewelry is common, yet it can be hard to spot if you don't know what you're looking for. Often, specific natural gemstones, flowers, birds, and motifs like stars and anchors were imbued with meanings that have fallen out of present-day society's collective memory. To appreciate the power of symbols in antique jewelry is to imagine what it would have been like to wear the piece and step back into history. Chinese jewelry is laden with symbolism - from the symbolic meanings of the natural stones to the enamel depictions. Stones like natural jade, coral, and tourmaline were popular and carried special meanings with them.

For example, jade was considered a symbol of desirable qualities, like wisdom and beauty. The stones were often doubled with meaning, as they were hand-carved into symbolic forms.
