This Mother’s Day, show the special mom in your life how important she is with one of these gorgeous designs. I went through our collection and came up with my 6 favourite pieces that would make the perfect present to give mom!

From L to R: 


Mama Bird – Birds Nest {I shall return}

Handcrafted using the impression of a British wax seal dating from the mid to late 1800’s, this pendant features a mama bird, flying from her nest of eggs.

Rosebud - Te Favente Virebo {Under thy favor I shall flourish}

Handcrafted using the impression of an 1840’s British wax seal, this pendant features a tightly furled rosebud, with the Latin motto ‘Te Favente Virebo’ surrounding it in a buckled belt. The rose symbolizes purity, beauty & grace, while the belt & buckle is emblematic of strength & protection.

The Three Graces - Charm, Beauty & Creativity

Handcrafted using the impression of a late 18th century English wax seal, this pendant features the Gratiae or Three Graces, known in ancient mythology as Charm, Beauty & Creativity.


The next two pieces are both titled ‘Motherhood’. Both pieces feature a pelican, which represent a mother’s love for her children. (One is a smaller version than the other)
