Think Of The Consequences Wax Seal
An early Victorian paste wax seal in darkest forest green with red flecks to mimic bloodstone
The French motto reads ‘Pensez Aux Suites’ which translates to ‘Think Of The Consequences’
This seal would make an epic signet ring, it is the perfect size and shape for the signet treatment. That said it would also be served splendidly as a pendant or dainty ring
Why we love it
A talisman for the impulsive!
It is all very well and good living in the moment and for the moment and there is significant merit in being present of course
However for the somewhat impulsive (for that read reckless) amongst us what better way to keep yourself anchored and committed to sane behaviour than a wonderful little antique talisman to remind you that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So before you go ahead and big fat do it, you impetuous mare, always remember to Think Of The Consequences!
And we love that it is written in French so that not every Tom Dick & Harry will know what your talisman for propriety says!
