6mm Forget-me-not and Ivy Wedding Set
These bands are composed of intertwining ivy and forget-me-nots, both of which have symbolic meaning going back to ancient times. Ivy, in Greek mythology was associated with the Dionysian cult of wine and worldly pleasures, unrestrained joy give or take a few hangovers. The Romans used a draft of ivy leaves boiled in wine as a "hair of the dog" remedy for hangover. Later, Ivy's tenacious ability to hang in there made it a fitting symbol for a strong relationship in medieval symbolism. The flowers of the Forget-me-not symbolize true love and remembrance. They have a long history in Pharmacopeia, the petals, stems and leaves being used to treat illness and injury for millennia. Truly, a flower not to be forgotten.
