Why we love it
This sentimental sardonyx forget me not is perfect in its diminutive appeal. It dates to the early Victorian era & will most likely have been carved for use in mourning jewellery.
Forget-me-nots have long been used to represent faithful & lasting love, particularly between lovers.
They also symbolise the act of remembering & cherishing special moments, both those with living loved ones & those who have passed.
The flower is a symbol of faithfulness & a commitment to stay true to one’s word & feelings.
Forget-me-nots represent long-lasting bonds, whether between romantic partners or friends, that can withstand time & distance.
