A meaningful and beautifully crafted antique seal, modelled in rich 15ct gold and dating to the Victorian era. The decorative body features a finely detailed forget-me-not flower — a classic symbol of remembrance and enduring affection. At the base sits a chalcedony intaglio, intricately carved with a heart at the centre and the poignant inscription: "TO BE EXCHANGED NOT SOLD", a sentiment typical of love tokens exchanged in the 19th century. A rare and emotive piece of historic jewellery, full of personal symbolism and charm.
