Symbolic, sentimental or spiritual, pendants and charms with meaning have been evolving for approximately 10 years, and they continue to be one of the strongest categories in jewelry. Who doesn’t want a talisman that brings love, luck, guidance, direction or good fortune, or keeps evil spirits away?  The newest talismans reveal some significance we might not have seen before. Others riff on antiquity while bringing the past into a modern context. Some designers have even created their own language out of multiple motifs and sayings. Individualism, memorable moments in one’s life and hope for better times ahead all add to the magical power these jewels have for luring customers back to buy more.
