Lily
Although lilies got their name from the dazzling whiteness of their flowers (in ancient Gaulish, "li-li" means white-white), in nature they can also be found in pinkish and even yellowish hues. This truly royal flower has a rich history, as descriptions or depictions of lilies can be found:

– in ancient Greek myths, where it was associated with Zeus, Hera, and Aphrodite;
– on the coats of arms of French kings as a symbol of reigning dynasties;
– in medieval paintings portraying noblewomen;
– in religious artworks — in the hands of saints.

Since ancient times, the meaning of lilies has been associated with innocence and purity. That’s why they are often depicted in the hands of the Virgin Mary or Archangel Gabriel. A beautiful German legend says that with every white lily, an elf is born who lives inside it: during the day, he sleeps in the flower’s cup, and at night, he swings it back and forth, making the lily produce a soft, gentle chime.

Another symbolic meaning of lilies is majesty and glory, which is why in ancient kingdoms, they were used as primary flowers for decorating palaces. In Ancient Rome, lilies also symbolized material luxury, wealth, and success, which is why wealthy citizens adorned not only their homes, but also their clothing and even chariots with lilies.
