What Does the Olympic Wreath Represent?
The early history of the wreath dates back to the 8th century BC. In ancient times wreaths made from laurel, ivy, olive leaves, oak, wheat, and vines were worn as crowns by Etruscan rulers. In ancient Rome and Greece, wreaths were used to represent a person’s status or accomplishments.
A laurel wreath is made of branches and leaves of the laurel, a type of evergreen shrub or small tree. In Ancient Rome, it was worn on the head as a symbol of triumph. The symbol of the laurel wreath is from Greek mythology. The Romans adopted the symbol because they admired Greek culture.
The Olympic Wreath is a sign of victory originating from ancient Green mythology and the early Olympic games. Ancient laurel wreaths are most often depicted as a horseshoe shape, modern versions are usually complete rings.
Why a Cross Blue Sapphire is the Best
We love blue. We know blue. We live by the blue sea, beneath summer blue skies. Even our business is located on a peninsula called Portland, surrounded by saltwater on three sides. We can feel the blue pulsing with every tide. Even from the rooftop of our building we can see the open sea. Binoculars show ships coming and going on a blue, blue sea.
We love blue sapphire, it’s bright, brilliant and is amazingly durable as the second hardest gem to diamond – making it a highly wearable gem. Ideal even for rings. We love blue sapphire, we love it so much we’ve traveled to southeast Asia to find first choice colors. We choose a lighter, brighter blue than most American jewelers because it shows up best under a wide range of real world lighting conditions. Our blue sapphires look and perform best on sunny summer days to candlelit dinners for two. We want your blue sapphire to dazzle you, dazzle your partner, and everyone in any room you choose to visit. Cross blue sapphires are the best.

Our extended ninety days, for a small business, is almost unheard of. Truth is, we shop for gifts too, and rather than scrambling at the last minute and feeling the tension of time, we like this more relaxed approach. We wish everyone did something like this… it would be a kinder, gentler world.
