Flourish 36" Silk Square

The Echo Series Scarf 'Flourish' was based on French Globe de Mariee. This tradition began in France, in the late 1800's. It was a display for married couples to preserve the story of their wedding and life together. Each item that was chosen for the display had a very special and personal meaning, it was a symbol that told the story of the bridal couple. Over the years special items were added, like gilded symbols, mirrors, house sparrows, making this globe highly personal and unique.

• Mirrors evoke the reflection of the soul, symbolizing the truth. Every time one passes by mirrors in the Globe de Mariee, they would smile, reminded by all the happy memories.
  
  
• House Sparrows represent freedom, joy, friendship, innocence, protection. It is the small things that make us happy.
  
  
• Siberian Crab Apple is a symbol of knowledge, immortality.
  
  
• Blue Iris is a symbol of faith, hope, wisdom, courage.
  
  
• Purple Iris brings a message of intuition, perception, awareness.

• Bluebells are associated with constancy, everlasting love, gratitude.
