Jewelry is a very popular gift for loved ones, and it’s even better when the item can symbolize your relationship. If you plan on buying jewelry for your wife or girlfriend this year, a journey pendant, symbolizing the path of your relationship, can make a wonderful gift.
Although journey pendants come in several forms, an arrangement of sparkling gemstones – usually diamonds – is one thing they have in common. The gemstones will be arranged in such a way that they are graduated in size. In other words, they are arranged according to size from large to small. This symbolic arrangement of stones can signify the start of your journey together or a reminder of the journey so far.
For a those who are dating or have recently become engaged, a journey necklace can be a symbol of the beginning of a their life together, showing that they’re ready to take this journey together, for better or for worse. The graduated diamonds represent that journey - starting small and building.
For a long time or married couples, a journey pendant can be a loving reminder of the times spent together, the paths already traveled - and the journey yet to come. The graduated diamonds symbolize how your love has grown and will continue to grow over the years.
The original and simplest form can be found in an ‘S’ shaped pendant, with the largest stone at the top and the smallest at the bottom. This simple shape symbolizes the winding road through a relationship, with all its twists and turns.
A white gold heart pendant is also a popular design. The graduated stones are usually set on one side of the heart, although it’s not uncommon to have them encircle the whole heart. The heart shape is a beautiful way to express both your love and the journey that you’ve taken together.
Another very popular design is the diamond circle pendant. A circle is also a beautiful choice, as it symbolizes eternity and a love with no end. A diamond circle journey pendant means that your love will continue to grow throughout eternity.
Whichever design you choose, you can be assured that the woman in your life will cherish the gift of a journey pendant.
