What is a Sailors Knot in Jewellery?
In jewellery, the Sailor's Knot (also called the Lover's Knot or Square Knot) is a traditional design that symbolizes strength, unity, and an unbreakable bond, often used to represent the connections between loved ones.
The knot itself is characterized by two interwoven loops that form a figure-eight shape, resembling the type of knot used by sailors to secure their ships.
​
The knot typically features:
-
Two ropes intertwined: Symbolizing two individuals or forces united together.
-
Symmetrical and balanced design: Often visually appealing for its even, interconnected loops.
-
Smooth, flowing lines: Creating a sleek, simple yet meaningful pattern, sometimes with embellishments like rope-texturing to evoke nautical themes.
