By Fabrizio Designs Memory Bracelets: Charming, Thoughtful Gifts

Why Memory Bracelets?

The development of culture and the creation of jewelry are inextricably intertwined. Classical societies, such as those of the ancient Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians, created jewelry from precious and semi-precious metals such as gold, silver, copper, lapis lazuli, carnelian, and even jet, or jewel-grade coal.

These ancient creations were likely expressed with the intention of communicating wealth and status, but it is likely that the creators, and wearers, both separately believed in the innate metaphysical properties of these metals and stones. Some today still believe that certain materials, tokens, and talismans have selective, protective powers.

Giving jewelry as a token of love and dedication may be a relatively new cultural phenomenon, but the practice carries all of the accumulated weight of the significance that jewelry has accrued throughout the eons. Making a gift of jewelry, particularly handmade jewelry, is making an indelible statement of affection, appreciation, dedication, or devotion. It matters little what the occasion is; there is so much traditional import wrapped up in the act.

A piece of jewelry like a memory bracelet is not just an aesthetic treasure. It is an ever-present reminder of the relationship between the offeror and the recipient. It is a visible token of love, faith, honesty, and dedication. Handmade jewelry is more than just a method to complete an ensemble with a model accent. The gift of jewelry communicates the expression of love, the affection of appreciation, and can even recognize achievements that are the fruits of hard labor and dedication.

Like all By Fabrizio Designs, our memory bracelets are instilled with a unique and distinct charm that is captured and displayed through select, semi-precious metals and stones, and even more unique styles, such as the elegant Entorchado technique of twisting metal wire into intricate forms. However, our memory bracelets make exceptional gifts, fitting for many occasions, thanks to their unique graces.

For What Occasions Are Memory Bracelets Fitting Gifts?

Memory bracelets can make original, heartfelt gifts for many of life’s special occasions, especially when taking into account the symbolic significance of the natural, semi-precious materials that we use.

For instance, many of our memory bracelets are lovingly handcrafted using beautiful freshwater pearls. These pearls often exhibit minor variations in hue, shape, size, and surface irregularities that make them somewhat more piquant than saltwater pearls.

They also make excellent anniversary gifts. Consider, for instance, that pearls are traditionally linked with the dedication and devotion associated with the 30th anniversary, the “Pearl Anniversary.” Freshwater pearl bracelets also make considerate gifts for other important milestones, other anniversaries, and holidays.

Many of our bracelets are also made with stunning turquoise, a deep, placid blue natural stone that is associated with wisdom, knowledge, and tranquility. It also happens to be one of the “blue” stones associated with December birthdays. That makes our turquoise memory bracelets particularly thoughtful birthday gifts for those born in December. Consider also birthday gifts of agate bracelets for those born in September, aventurine bracelets for those born under the Zodiacal sign Cancer, and amethyst bracelets for those born in February.

Aligning the artistic use of stones in our bracelets with the stones associated with the zodiac or birthstones is only one way to make a birthday offering. Many of these natural stones are bestowed for their symbolic significance. Consider hematite, which is believed by some to strengthen and protect, morganite, which is believed to protect innocence and foster true love, and quartz, which is symbolic of healing and improved energy levels.

All of our handcrafted memory bracelets are made with an eye on these details and are made specifically with stones that have rich historical, cultural, and symbolic significance. In addition to making excellent gifts for birthdays and anniversaries, they also make unique and thoughtful gifts for other special occasions, such as at graduations or for holidays like Valentine’s Day.

Other gifts from our catalog make great gifts at other times of the year and for celebrating life’s special milestones, including but not limited to baptism, christenings, weddings, and a variety of holidays that occur throughout the year. Of course, gifts do not always require a prerequisite special occasion. Our memory bracelets and other handcrafted jewelry will make a nice gift for your wife or girlfriend at any time of year, simply as a token of your love and adoration for her.
