A True Friend Wax Seal
This late Georgian/early Victorian yellow paste seal depicts a traditional full length mirror and the French ‘Un Vrai Ami’ meaning ‘A True Friend’
The seal benefits from beautiful faceting to the back and border of the matrix
Why we love it
During the Georgian period the phrase ‘A mirror is a true friend’ was a deeply popular proverb
Unlike people, a mirror never lies to you. It shows you exactly who you are, capturing both your beauty and your flaws with complete honesty
