August Birth Flower Gladiolus Diamond Coin Necklace

14k gold with diamonds specked around a raised carving of August’s birth flower, Gladiolus. 

Gladiolus’ name comes from the Latin gladius, meaning “sword,” reflecting the shape of its leaves and its association with courage and honor. In ancient Rome, gladiolus was linked to gladiators, symbolizing strength, victory, and moral integrity.

Beyond symbolism, gladiolus has long been admired for its striking beauty and tall, dramatic spikes, making it a favorite in gardens and ceremonial displays. Its wide range of colors allows it to express admiration, strength, and emotional depth, making it as versatile in meaning as it is visually impressive.

What makes gladiolus special is its bold elegance. It stands tall and unwavering, a flower that celebrates inner strength, moral courage, and heartfelt emotion—all while capturing attention with its natural grace.
