The pendant is carved from a yellow hued paste, carefully crafted to resemble glowing citrine. When worn, it catches the light with a warm, honeyed radiance that perfectly complements the romantic message it bears. Finely added into the intaglio is the heartfelt motto: “The Hope of Return Takes the Sting from Adieu.”
Such inscriptions were deeply cherished in the 18th and 19th centuries, often exchanged as tokens of affection during periods of separation. The phrase speaks of love, reassurance, and the comfort found in the promise of reunion. Transforming farewell into hope rather than loss.
The intaglio is set into a simple and elegant 9 carat gold mount, allowing the engraving and its meaning to take centre stage. The understated setting enhances the intimacy of the piece while ensuring it remains timeless and wearable.
A poignant and romantic antique pendant, filled with longing and devotion. A wonderful example of jewellery created not merely to adorn, but to convey emotion and enduring connection across time.

Perfect Statue
Color: Venus - Large Antique, Color: Venus - Large Antique
This Venus De Milo statue is gorgeous. It is very sturdy but not too heavy…….. it appears heavier than it is which I adore since it is a statue. It has an “aged” coloring around the facial features and intricate details which makes it more authentic looking. I love Greek mythology and this piece is a perfect addition to my living room decor. Definitely worth the price.

Just perfect for that small nook on your bookshelf.
Color: Venus - Large Antique
A beautiful bust small enough to display in a small nook area of a shelf. It isn’t a masterpiece, but it is definitely worth the value for the money.

Mostly great
I think it could use a little less “antiqueing” around the nose. I might paint it to make that area look less dirty. Other than that i really enjoy it!
