长辈传下来的首饰
婚嫁首饰不一定都是新买的,也可能由长辈交到新人手中。一只金镯、一枚戒指,曾经属于谁、在哪一天戴过,都能成为这份礼物的一部分。是否传赠、怎样佩戴,由家人自己的意愿决定。旧首饰来到新的婚礼上,纹样没有变,陪伴它的人生故事却又往前多了一段。
Jewellery passed down
Wedding jewellery may come from an elder rather than a new purchase. A bangle or ring can carry memories of its owner and earlier occasions. Passing it on and wearing it are personal family choices. When an older piece appears at another wedding, its design remains while a new chapter joins its history.
