An antique 15ct gold decorative seal, dating to the Victorian era. At its base rests a beautifully carved bloodstone intaglio, showing a ship sailing across the sea with the words “Such Is Life” inscribed above. The phrase, simple yet profound, speaks to the journey we all take, facing life’s tides with resilience and acceptance. The deep green bloodstone, flecked with red, enhances the sentiment with its historic associations of strength and protection.
A jewel rich with meaning, this seal carries not only Victorian artistry but also a timeless reminder of endurance and hope.
