Use oysters and pearls that have all aspects of water, means love, beauty, gentility, comfort, and relief. Nymphaea or lotus as the symbol of harmony has roots in the soil and stems in the water while facing the sun. It symbolizes Gentility, spiritual growth, and birth cycle. In general, the design shows a bird that has opened its two wings and is ready to ascension to the highest of its power.
