Time Goes On Crutches Till We Meet Wax Seal
An antique paste seal mimicking rock crystal featuring text ‘Time Goes On Crutches Till We Meet’.
Why we love it
Ever had such misfortune so as to warrant crutches to assist your perambulation? Trust us, it’s no laughing matter.
So slowwwwww. Slowy McSlowerson.
What a beautiful metaphor for the endless interludes between seeing your beloved. We’re thinking this is a clandestine and forbidden love. Hence the desperation that is inferred by these words. It speaks to us of furtive planning, secret love notes and snatched moments.
Time doesn’t crawl or move slowly when waiting for the next encounter. No. Much worse than that. It moves on crutches.
The slowest movement known to man surely?
The perfect talisman for lovers separated by fate’s cruel whim.
