Product Description
“&” implies togetherness, unity. A cute romantic gift for your partner, which means “You & Me”. It can also be a perfect gift between best friends, close brothers, close sisters, close brothers and sisters – basically it signifies close bond of any type, between any two people. All these emotions could be expressed with this single stylish symbol.
Anyone would love this simple classic pendant. This everyday minimalistic wear goes with any outfit.
Ampersand (&) without doubt is the most elegant looking character. It comes in so many fashions. The ampersand is one of the few characters in the English language that stands alone with a distinct meaning and distinct look. It feels magical and attracts endless fascination. It has already acquired a celebrity status among all symbols. There are blogs, coloring books, t-shirt brands, and unique fonts dedicated to this single symbol. So a unique gift to any geek or creative person, as this whimsical, one of its kind letter challenges your creativity.
And apart from giving this cool gift to someone, what if you sweep them off with some cool facts that they most probably haven’t heard before? Ampersand has an interesting back story which goes back to era of Romans.
The shape (&) came about at least 1500 years before its name. In first Century, Romans used to write in cursive. Latin word for and was “et”. There was a practice of writing “E” and “T” together to form a ligature. Over the period many ligatures were used in cursive Roman. The ET symbol evolved over the period. Although by 9th century use of most ligatures diminished, ET-ligature was continued to be used. It gradually became more stylized and less revealing of its origin leading to its current form: &.
“&” was regarded as the 27th letter of the English alphabet. In the early 1800s, school children reciting their ABCs concluded the alphabet with the “&”. It would have been confusing to say “X, Y, Z, and.” Rather, the students said, “and per se and.” “Per se” means “by itself.” Over time, “and per se and” was slurred together into the word “ampersand”.
You can choose from a variety of colors and materials to give a different meaning to this piece, suited best for the person and your relationship with him/her. Red signifies love, Yellow is for Joy, white means pure, Orange symbolizes Passion, Pink shows your gratitude, Green is for someone full of life energy, Blue is color of trust, Purple dares you to imagine, Silver is for sensitive person, Black is a color of grace, mystery. Your creativity is the only limit for deriving unique meanings out of it.
