Wear Butterfly Ring Designs and Flutter like a Butterfly

The flora and fauna of the natural world always served as a great source of inspiration to creative minds. Jewellery designers are no exception to this and from time to time, they incorporated animal motifs into the ornaments they designed. Such motifs often had a symbolic value and at times, their aesthetic appeal outweighed the symbolism. From the Scarab Beetle pendants of the Egyptian pharaohs to the peacock-themed jewellery of South India, there is no end to how jewellery makers made creative use of the bugs and birds they saw around them. One such motif that fascinates both makers and wearers is the butterfly and some of the butterfly ring designs you find today are excellent pieces of craftsmanship, not to mention the symbolic value they possess.

The butterfly design symbolism: From life to death and many things in between

As with many other symbols, the butterfly meant different things in different cultures and there was a time it carried a morbid connotation as it represented the soul of the dead. But as time passed, people started associating the butterfly with life, growth, transition, and grace, among many other things. Those who are familiar with Greek mythology would remember that Psyche, the Goddess of the Soul, is often depicted with butterfly wings. Many Asian cultures saw this tiny creature as representing long life and for the Chinese, two butterflies symbolised love. With the advent of Christianity, butterflies started representing the soul.

The evolution of butterfly jewellery designs

Given the wide range of meanings it conveyed, it is no surprise that people used the butterfly motif to lend a symbolic air to the jewellery they made and wore. A Hellenistic necklace of the 2nd century BC is the oldest known ornament crafted using this motif. In Europe, butterfly-shaped brooches were in vogue during the Victorian period and the Art Nouveau period took this trend a step further by adding butterflies and flowers into different types of ornaments. The shape of the butterfly is quite conducive to creative and expressive designs and jewellers started using this symbol in every form imaginable. Today, golden or stone-studded butterflies flutter across a wide range of ornaments including rings, pendants, and necklaces.
