Daisy Charm Meaning

A daisy charm is a small piece of pure sunshine. It stands for innocence, loyal love and a cheerful, honest heart.

Innocence and simplicity: The daisy has meant innocence and purity for centuries, thanks to its open, unfussy face and its habit of growing freely in meadows and lawns. The common English daisy, Bellis perennis, is the one most of us picture, dotting lawns and verges from spring right through summer. It is the flower of childhood, of daisy chains and simpler days, which is why it feels so warm and nostalgic to wear.

The day's eye: The name daisy comes from the Old English daegeseage, meaning day's eye. The flower opens its petals at sunrise and closes them again at dusk, following the light like a tiny sun. That daily rhythm gave the daisy its name and much of its gentle charm.

Loyal love and secrets: In the Victorian language of flowers the daisy carried a lovely double meaning. It stood for loyal love and for keeping a confidence, so a posy of daisies told someone their secret was safe with you. The charm carries that quiet loyalty too.

What the daisy charm represents

Worn on a bracelet or necklace, the daisy charm celebrates a fresh, happy spirit, a loyal friendship, or the innocence of a new baby. It is uplifting without trying too hard. Who it suits. It makes a sweet gift for a cheerful friend, a new mum, a flower-loving girl, or anyone who prefers their jewellery natural and unfussy. It works for birthdays (the daisy is the birth flower for April) , new babies, and just-because treats.

The design behind the daisy charm

The Lily Charmed daisy charm is made from recycled 925 sterling silver with a tarnish-resistant rhodium plating, so it stays bright and gentle on sensitive skin. Its open petals and round centre are picked out in clean detail. Both finishes of the daisy open on a hinged clasp made for Pandora bracelets and most charm carriers.

How to wear the daisy charm

Cluster it with other flower charms for a meadow on your wrist, or wear it solo for something understated and pretty. It pairs happily with initial and birthstone charms, and looks sweet hung on a simple chain. Explore our other botanical charms and matching flower jewellery to build your own bunch.
