  Jewelry is more than fashion, it becomes part of the wearer. Giving a piece of jewelry that is purported to bring good luck is one way to express not only your hopes for her prosperous future, but your appreciation of the recipient's character. Jewelers take inspiration from history and culture to create wearable good luck charms. You can create good luck jewelry by giving a piece that you have loved or a design that has special meaning for you.
  
  

Four-Leaf Clover

• Any jeweler's depiction of a four-leaf clover is lucky. It might be a piece of silver or gold hammered into the shape of a clover or a real clover encased in glass to create a pendant.
  
  

Saints

• A depiction of a saint is a piece of lucky good luck. The saint you pick can make the luck specific for your recipient. For example, to wish him good luck on a trip, offer Saint Christopher, the Catholic patron saint of travel safety. The Saint Jude is "The Miraculous Saint," the Catholic patron saint of "lost causes." Common belief is that Saint Joseph will help you sell your home or find a job.
  
  

Asian Symbols

• The Chinese characters for luck, prosperity, and fortune make attractive good luck jewelry charms. Small elephants and depictions of Buddha are also very popular good luck pendants and earrings and jewelers like to work these images into wide bangle bracelets.
  
  

Stones

• If your gift recipient might be uncomfortable wearing a symbol that means luck, consider giving a strand of lucky beads instead. Many people associate precious and semi-precious stones with luck. In Poland, brides pass down their amber bridal necklaces to guard their daughters against evil spirits.
  
  

Evil Eye

• Born as an idea in the Mediterranean area, the "evil eye" protects its wearer. Jewelers fashion the evil eye as a circle with a black and white center, using glass, crystal, ceramics and metals. You can buy evil eyes as pendants, bracelets, earrings, and rings.
  
  

Coins

• You can buy special bands to surround a coin and convert it into a pendant, making it possible to give your own "lucky" coin to a family member or friend.
