I Only Change In Death
A beautiful pale green paste glass seal featuring imagery of an oak leaf and French text ‘Je me change q’en mourant’ (I only change in death).
Why we love it
This motto is typically seen with a bay leaf, however here we have an oak leaf!
Oak has symbolism of strength, stability, longevity and endurance – perfect talismanic qualities in our book.
