POPPY COIN CHARM NECKLACE ~ For Love, Peace, Remembrance, Dreams, Success, Magic & Fertility
The poppy has a rich and extensive history and is the birth flower of August. First cultivated in Mesopotamia around 5000 BCE, its well documented pain relieving qualities made it the go to plant for healers in most of the ancient and modern civilisations. Inevitably, such widespread use lead to a wealth of folklore. Poppies are heavily associated with sleep and dreaming. It was believed that if you wrote a question on a slip of paper, placed it in a poppy head and slept with it under your pillow, your dreams will guide you to the answer, and hoping to dream about their future spouses on St Andrew’s night, young girls would throw poppy seeds behind them. Poppies have a powerful magic and can be used in love and invisibility potions. It was believed that wearing a necklace of poppy heads would enhance fertility, and that eating bread with poppy seeds on New Year’s Eve would bring an abundance for the following year. In Welsh folklore, yellow poppies should never be bought inside as they invite headaches, storms and lightning strikes, but seeds spread around the house would protect against fairy enchantments.
Our petite sentiment charms are made with real flowers in sterling silver, using the traditional technique of lost wax casting. They are beautifully packaged with our signature box posy which changes with the seasons, a card detailing our favourite facts and folklore, and a gift card for a personal message.
Floriography, also known as the language of flowers, is the practice of attributing meanings and symbolism to flowers and has been recorded in traditional cultures around the world for thousands of years.
