Fleur De Lis


What does this symbol mean to you?

The Fleur De Lis, also known as the "Lily of France," is a royal symbol with many meanings. Traditionally said to signify perfection, light, and life.

The "Fleur De Lis" necklace is a 1/2 inch sterling silver, 925 disc that has been handstamped. The charm hangs on a 18 inch sterling silver bead chain and includes a swarovski crystal of your choice. Artist note: The design on this pendant have been hand stamped. I do not use machines. The design will not line up perfectly and is not meant to this is part of the charm that makes your piece one of a kind. No two pieces will ever be exactly the same. The charm has been slightly brushed and the letters have been oxidized/antiqued to make them stand out it will appear to be aged or slightly tarnished but has been given a good polish.

It means a lot as it's the symbol of New Orleans where I am from and the inspiration to my shoppe! Great piece Kristen!!!

Hubby is a longtime Saints fan. So whenever I see a Fleur De Lis I think of football!

Kristen, this is so gorgeous, I must order one for my sister. I'm a very amateur silversmith in sydney which I do as a hobby, but none of my stuff is anywhere as gorgeous as yours!

I always think of New Orleans. I've made several stained glass Fleur De Lis for New Orleans residents and former residents. Its a pattern I love to work with. There is something about the flow of the design that captures my imagination. Great post With gratitude, Laurie B.
