DATE: Georgian, c.1780

Charming antique seal fob pendant set with an intaglio carved bloodstone base depicting two doves and a love knot, along with the words LE PLUS LOIN LE PLUS SERRE. This translates to the furthest, the tightest, which in this case could symbolize the further away you are from a lover, the tighter your relationship becomes. A romantic piece for sure, which features a highly ornate body, crafted in 15 karat yellow gold. Circa 1780.
