Infinity Jewelry: A Meaningful and Timeless Gift

The infinity symbol represents love that goes on forever. The infinity sign, or sideways figure 8, signifies an everlasting love, which makes it a popular option for tattoos, artwork, and jewelry. It’s also a symbol of faith symbolizing one’s everlasting loyalty to a higher power (but isn’t tied to one religion). Others see the infinity symbol as two pieces that are intertwined, symbolizing two parts coming together as one.

History of the Infinity Symbol

This popular symbol of love isn’t new. In fact several ancient paintings featured the symbol, but it didn’t carry any meaning until 1655. Mathematician John Wallis gave it significance by using the infinity symbol to denote mathematical infinity–an actual or potential endless quantity of values.

You might remember this symbol from math class because it’s still used for its mathematical meaning. The symbol is also referred to as a lemniscate because of its shape. Lemniscate is derived from a Latin word that means "decorated with ribbons," and the symbol does look like a bow of ribbons.

Celtic symbolism believes the infinity symbol’s spiritual meaning can be interpreted literally. It’s a never-ending loop without a beginning. Celtic culture sees this loop as the cycle of life–the ebb and flow of our existence. Some cultural artwork or images have a double infinity with one representing life and the other death. Historically, Celtic architecture shows this using a serpent with a head and a tail, curled up in the infinity sign.

Infinity Jewelry

You’ll find earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and rings featuring the infinity symbol, but necklaces and rings are most popular. You’ll see it incorporated into designs in different ways. For example, some infinity rings have symbols at the top of the ring where a center diamond would go. Others replicate the infinity symbol in the band, and some people refer to bands that even slightly mimic this shape (with a twisting pattern) as infinity rings.

Infinity Jewelry Tips

If you’re considering a piece of infinity jewelry as a gift, their personal style preferences and occasion can make a difference. Take note of what style of jewelry your loved one wears and which metal they typically wear. Similarly, you’ll want to consider the occasion that you’re giving this gift for so that it’s appropriate.

Caring for Infinity Jewelry

Store your jewelry separately from other pieces to prevent damage. To clean your pieces, use a soft brush, water, and mild soap to brush away debris and dirt that can get trapped within your pieces.

Whether for a close friend or a significant other, infinity jewelry makes an unforgettable, meaningful, and timeless gift. You have plenty of options and look depending on your loved one’s individual style.
