Details

This lovely little Rock Crystal and Silver Pendant is genuine Victorian Circa 1900.

The clear Rock Crystal window displays a Forget me not within, set in colourful hand painted Enamel.

"Forget-me-not, O Lord!" is what a poor German knight shouted as he fell into a river. He and his lady were picking flowers by the side of the river at the time, no doubt enjoying the beautiful day around them, and yet as fate would have it, the knight's armour dragged him down to the bottom as he fell in.

Upon his cries to the Lord, he threw the blue posy of flowers to his loved one and promptly drowned. This little tale reportedly dates to around the 15th century, but no doubt had different permeations along the way, as romantic stories often do. Hence, the concept of remembrance, eternal love and faithfulness grow from this.

The beautiful clear Rock crystal is a colourless form of Quartz that was once believed to be a powerful healing stone which was said to increase ones energy.

The wonderful little pendant is set in a Sterling Silver frame displaying beautiful all round Victorian workmanship.

Purchased in London and steeped in English history.

Would look stunning displayed on a Silver chain, a beautiful piece that deserves to be treasured.

Weighs 4.4 grams.

Measures 16mm across x 16mm down x 21mm down including bale.

Excellent condition for it’s age.
