Sentimental jewelry was hugely popular in Europe from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, expressing a variety of emotions including passion, affection, loyalty, devotion and mourning. Preferred symbols and emblems for jewelry included hearts, keys, knots, buckles, eyes, miniature portraits, acrostics, snakes, cupids, and other signifiers of love and attachment, that we still cherish today.
