At Leisure
A beautifully hand carved white chalcedeony intaglio featuring imagery of a stag resting alongside a tree with text ‘At leisure’
Why we love it
The majestic stag, symbolic of strength, power, protection, nobility and honour, looks protective of the young tree, likely an oak; itself powerfully symbolic of longevity, wisdom, strength and endurance
The stag is also strongly associated with the cycles of nature, particularly growth, shedding and rebirth, due to their antlers’ annual growth and loss
This talisman packs a punch with its abundant symbolism
