Fish symbols have been popular as charms and good luck gifts for centuries. As fish have been an important food source for mankind, charms and amulets depicting fish have been worn to assure that the wearer will never be hungry. Fish charms of various types have been found in archeological excavations going back thousands of years. The symbols are made of various materials, from precious metals to wood and other simple material.
Ancient sea peoples, such as the Phoenicians, worshiped fish as gods, demonstrating the importance of fish in their daily lives.
Besides fish symbols which have a religious significance, fish symbols in jewelry can also be found relating to sport fishes such as marlin, bass, trout, sword fish, and other fish commonly caught for sport. Some fish jewelry also contains precious and semi precious stones, including pearls.
