The custom of giving carved lovespoons as love tokens began in Wales in the 17th Century although ornamental carvings in many forms can be dated to much further back. Today, these are given as gifts to people all across the World to celebrate special life events such as engagements, weddings, anniversaries, christenings, graduations and more. They make excellent wall hangings alongside family photos and other emotive ornaments which bring joy to your heart. The tradition sees a lovespoon being carved with various symbols which signify the meaning of the gift. The spoon could be as simple or as complex as the skills of the carver allowed and the symbols include the following:
Heart = Love Bells = Wedding or Anniversary Lock = Security Cross = Faith Twisted Stem = Growing Love Anchor = Steadfastness
