The act, process, or feeling of cherishing; the state of being cherished or held dear.
From 'cherish' plus the suffix '-ment' (indicating a state or result of an action), following the pattern of English nouns like 'nourishment' and 'establishment.'
'Cherishment' is a beautiful but archaic word—it appears in old poetry to describe the deep feeling of being cared for and valued, which is why you'll find it in romance literature and religious texts.
