What does a pendant symbolize?

1 Answer
What does a pendant symbolize?
What a pendant symbolizes is really a matter of individual interpretation. The meaning of a pendant largely comes from what a person assigns to it based on its shape and appearance. For example, a cross pendant symbolizes Christian religious faith, while a heart pendant often represents romantic or familial love. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of pendants.
