Laurel and tradition
History, symbolism, and the Italian graduation ritual
An ancient symbol
Laurel (Laurus nobilis) has been associated with victory and knowledge since ancient Greece and Rome. Apollo, god of arts and sciences, was depicted wearing a laurel crown.
The Italian tradition
In Italy, the laurel crown is the quintessential symbol of graduation. Worn during the proclamation ceremony, it represents the completed course of study and entry into the professional world.
Bologna, city of knowledge
Bologna, home to the oldest university in the Western world, is the beating heart of this tradition. Every LaurelBySakar crown is handmade in this city, with selected leaves and artisanal care.
