A jewel of pure sentimental history. This remarkable ring began its life in the Georgian era as a personal seal fob. Some time in its history it has been converted into a ring, preserving all of its original charm and meaning. At its centre sits a glass intaglio, finely hand engraved with the French phrase “Il faut me chercher”—“You must seek me” or “Come and find me.”

Beneath the inscription is a delicately carved pansy nestled in grass, a classic Georgian symbol of thoughtfulness and tender sentiment (“pansy” deriving from pensée, meaning “thought” in French). Together, the imagery and motto form a poetic message of longing, affection, and devotion.

The conversion to a ring has given this piece new life as a wearable treasure while preserving its original purpose as an intimate token. Its character, symbolism, and artistry make it truly one-of-a-kind.
