Charm meaning questions

What is JewelMotif™?

JewelMotif™ is the JewelHub™ guide to charm meanings. It explains over 230 charm symbols in plain words and sorts them by meaning, by type of charm and by special occasion.

What does a key charm mean?

A key charm means opening a new chapter: a new door, a fresh start or a new home. It is a popular gift for milestone birthdays, new homes and graduations.

What does a star charm mean?

A star charm means wishes and guidance. It stands for ambition, hope and the year ahead, so it suits New Year, birthdays and graduations.

What does a heart charm mean?

A heart charm means love and care. It can say "I choose you" to a partner, or "you are loved" to a child, a friend or a parent.

What does a butterfly charm mean?

A butterfly charm means change and becoming. It marks a new chapter you are stepping into on purpose, such as a new year of life, a graduation or a new home.

What does an evil eye charm mean?

An evil eye charm means protection from harm and bad luck. It is worn as a quiet shield and is often given to someone starting something new.

Which charm means good luck?

A four-leaf clover, a horseshoe and a lucky elephant all mean good luck. A fish brings abundance and a coin brings wealth, and both are popular for Chinese New Year.

Which charm means protection?

A shield, an angel, an anchor, an evil eye and a lion all mean protection. The shield stands for a guardian and the anchor for stability and home.

Which charm is a good birthday gift?

A crown (today you reign), a star (born to shine), a butterfly (another year of growing) or a key (a new door opens). A gem charm can stand for the birthstone.
