You Have Captured Me
A Victorian era clear paste seal which we have transformed into a shimmering iridescent wonder doublet by adding an antique mother of pearl gaming chip; making the reverse almost as beguiling as the front!
Featuring imagery of the a flutterby butterfly gently resting atop the chubbiest of hearts
The French text reads ‘Tu Me Fixe’ which translates today as you stare at me which would make this something of an unnerving stalker seal – ha!
However, if we consider ye olde French we have a rather more pleasing motto of healthy love which is essentially along the line of ‘You Have Captured Me’. Emma says think of ‘transfixed here people and you are along the right lines
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
Chubby Hearts, butterflies, a romantic message delivered in the original language of lurrrrve and the iridescent shimmer of mother of pearl. What more could a jewellery lover possibly want?!
