The design element on this diminutive silver pendant is a quatrefoil, meaning “four leaves”. Traditionally its shape is the outline of 4 overlapping circles. It has long been a symbol of good luck — think of a four leaf clover. During the Gothic period it had a religious connotation, as it resembled a cross, and it was widely used in architecture of the period. It has recently seen a huge resurgence in popularity and is everywhere you look, from furniture to manicure art.
