#TwilightForever: The Cullen Crest


The Cullen Crest

Each member of the Cullen family wears the crest in some way. The boys all have wristbands. Rosalie has a pendant, and Alice has a choker. According to Catherine Hardwicke in the Twilight Director’s Notebook, the hand at the top of the crest represents faith or sincerity (aka their faith in Carlisle and each other), and the three clovers at the bottom represent perpetuity or eternity (since they’re immortal). She says the lion is for strength and ferocity (vampiric nature), and of course it’s a reference to the famous line “And so the lion fell in love with the lamb…” (Twilight page 274).
