The nine years that the spouses lived together is a special, unique date. Such a wedding has long been called in Russia chamomile or earthenware, and this has its own, intimate and deep meaning.
Chamomile is a flower of love. It is according to him that from time immemorial they try to guess "loves - does not love". It symbolizes chamomile and the sun, so the ninth wedding anniversary is illuminated by its warmth. And the faience, which also symbolizes this holiday, is not just a material used to make cutlery. It consists of several clays and has the property of absorbing negative energy - with a return instead of positive. That is why good housewives do not forget to regularly clean the dishes to a shine and change them to a new one.
Faience (chamomile) wedding is the final interweaving of destinies, the recognition that the spouses have become a strong, united whole. Their feelings are as pure as white chamomile petals, and their bond is as strong as the interweaving of several clays in one object. This is the meaning of this day.
