Gypsophila is also known as baby’s breath, a name which became popular in the late 1800s because of its delicate odour and bloom. It is a native of Eastern Europe, but nowadays grows happily all over the world and thrives in dry, sandy soil. Gypsophila literally translates as lover of chalk. Widely associated with innocence and ever lasting love, the flower is a firm florist’s favourite used in bridal bouquets and christenings. Gypsophila was a common ingredient in folklore medicines to treat coughs and colds, and their high saponin content is used in cleaning products, camera film emulsions and fire extinguishers. It is said to be the fairy’s favourite flower and can be used to attract their positive energies, it is also a powerful ingredient used in love spells and potions.
Our medal charms are made with real flowers in sterling silver, using the traditional technique of lost wax casting. They are beautifully packaged with our signature box posy which changes with the seasons, a card detailing our favourite facts and folklore, and a gift card for a personal message.
If you feel that not all the sentiments are appropriate, simply add a note in 'Special Instructions' at checkout and we will remove it from the card insert.

By choosing an Albert swivel clasp (first used on Victorian watch chains), your charm needn’t stay in one place. It can move with ease between chain and bracelet, a small detail that makes a big difference.
Charms will be attached to your chosen accessory as standard. If none is selected, we'll include a seasonal ribbon choker ~ to carry your charm until you place it elsewhere.
Floriography, also known as the language of flowers, is the practice of attributing meanings and symbolism to flowers and has been recorded in traditional cultures around the world for thousands of years.
