The Symbolism of Angels and Angel Wings in Memorial Jewellery

symbolism of angels

After losing someone you love, you might have found yourself noticing angels and angel wings more than ever before. Maybe you’ve spotted them on greetings cards, in art or in nature, as little signs that seem to appear just when you need them most. There’s something incredibly comforting about the symbolism of angels, whether you connect them to their religious roots or not.

These beautiful beings often bring with them a feeling of peace, love and protection so it’s no wonder so many people find comfort in keeping them close, whether it’s as ornaments on their mantlepiece or right by their side as memorial jewellery.

What is the Symbolism of Angels?

The symbolism of angels runs deep and across many different cultures and beliefs. For most of us, we see angels as messengers from above, protectors and guides that have been sent to help us through our difficult moments. They represent purity, peace, hope and the idea that we’re never truly alone.

When we’re grieving, the symbolism of angels can become even more meaningful. Angel wings in particular are a symbol of spiritual freedom, the soul’s journey from earth to heaven and the comforting idea that our loved ones are now watching over us. Whether you believe in a higher power or simply find comfort in the thought of being surrounded by love, angels can offer incredible strength during tough times.

How Can Angel Memorial Jewellery Help with Loss?

When dealing with grief and loss, it’s often the things we least expect that help bring us comfort. And for many people, the symbolism of angels and angel memorial jewellery has become a personal way to carry their loved one with them every day.

The symbolism of angels in jewellery helps remind us that those we love may be gone, but they’re never far. For example, a necklace featuring angel wings or a delicate charm of a guardian angel can serve as a source of peace and a daily reminder that your loved one is never far away, even if you can’t physically see them.

Charlotte - Content & Memorial Jewellery Specialist

Charlotte

Hi, I'm Charlotte, the content writer here at Inscripture. I write our guides on memorial jewellery, ashes jewellery, personalised gifts and grief and bereavement support, and it's some of the most meaningful work I've ever done.

Every article starts with a real story, something a family has shared with us, a question they've asked, or a piece our production team has poured hours into. I sit down with our founder, Hayley, and the makers behind each keepsake to learn how it's made and why it matters, then try to write about it clearly and honestly, the way I'd want someone to explain it to me.
I also write from a place of understanding. I've lost loved ones too, and found memorial jewellery genuinely helpful in my own grief, so I know how much it can mean to hold onto something personal and lasting.

If you're navigating a loss, or choosing something for yourself or for someone else, I hope what I write makes one small part of it easier.
