Look, Listen & STFU
A Georgian era purple paste mimicking amethyst seal.
A rebus seal is a form of puzzle whereby a message is conveyed via a combo of words and images which must be decrypted to understand the meaning. Some are more difficult to sleuth than others.
The seal features imagery of an eye and an ear and French text ‘et se taire’.
Generously set in 14ct yellow gold as our Classic Pendant with a Diddy size fixed bail to accommodate most chain sizes.
Why we love it
What the Christopher Biggins is this seal all about then eh?
Well, as aforementioned it’s a rebus puzzle seal so a mix of images and script to form a cryptic message
This one has an eye (to look) an ear (to listen) and the French phrase ‘et se taire’ which is a non too polite way of telling somebody to zip it
For the mild mannered amongst you the interpretation which could be readily adopted is along the lines of the wisdom of Elizabeth I ‘I see and remain silent’ for the astute observers. Those that listen more than speak
For the rest of you rowdy rabble we prefer ‘Look, Listen & Shut The F**ck Up’
Speaking frankly, we all want to say that to the eejits sometimes right? Some of us approximately 76 times in any given 24 hour period – ha!
