Fleur-de-Lis

The Fleur-de-Lis, sometimes spelled Fleur-de-Lys, is rich in history and legendary. 

Representing either a lily, lotus flower or an iris, its motif comes from a distant past and to this day, remains a mystery as to its origins.

Traditionally, it has been used to represent French royalty, and in that sense it is said to signify perfection, light, and life.
