Treasured describes something you hold on to and look after because it means a great deal to you — a treasured photograph, a treasured friendship, a treasured memory of your grandfather. Note where the value comes from: not from price, but from feeling. A treasured object may be worth nothing at all to anyone else, and that is quite normal, even typical.
