This substantial and unique amethyst intaglio pendant showcases an intricately engraved compass, encircled by the words "Agite Mais Constant". Originally used as a wax seal dating to the Georgian era (the early 1800s), the phrase roughly translates to "Act, but stay firm" or "Move, but stay steady', symbolising the balance between dynamic action and steadfast consistency. Thoughtfully repurposed, this piece is now beautifully encased in a chunky handcrafted 18-carat yellow gold setting, accented with pink sapphires on each square-edge claw. The large oval pendant bail allows for easy alternation between your favourite chains and necklaces, making it a versatile addition to your collection.
The captivating amethyst boasts a vibrant purple hue, with natural feather inclusions that add depth and character to the stone.
This one-of-a-kind pendant is perfect for adorning chains, clasps, and charm holders. Whether worn solo or as part of your favourite pendant collection, it serves as both a meaningful accessory and a symbol of motivation and guidance.
The pendant will be submitted for hallmarking before shipping and will bear full traditional UK hallmarks from the London Assay Office. It will be ready to ship within two weeks from the order date once the hallmarking is complete.
