Signet Fob Sola Virtus Nobilitat Henderson Society, 1890

About the Item

Cornelian Signet Fob of the Scottish Clan Henderson Society. Created around 1890. A fine historical item with amazing significance. The signet Cornelian says: Sola Virtus Nobilitat (Virtue Alone Enobles). And has the Clan Henderson Society logo. With a star in a hand and a Crescent Moon. Heritage of the clan. The sons of Henry (MacEanruig) are a family as old as any clan in the Highlands. In modern times, Clan Henderson traces the lineage through the Chief of the Name and Arms of Henderson, Alistair of Fordell. However, in times more distant Henderson’s can claim descent from a King of the Picts and down through five unique bloodlines evolving from the regions of Caithness, Fordell, Glencoe, Shetlands/Liddesdale and Ulster. Henderson’s from the Glencoe region have strong ties to the MacDonald Clan and were renowned as pipers and bodyguards to the Glencoe MacDonald Chief (MacIan). Henderson’s from the Caithness region have ties to the Clan Gunn. A true future classic, its value will be sure to rise as time goes by. It is a perfect item both for a fine jewelry collection and to be worn for special occasions. Well, worth a fine jewelry collection. Weight: 0.31 oz (8.9 gr) Length: 2.5 cm (0.98 inches)

  • Victorian Pansy Blue Enamel Diamonds Flower Pendant, 1890
    Located in Herzelia, Tel Aviv
    Victorian Pansy Flower Blue Enamel with old-cut Diamonds Choker Pendant. Tender and elegant flower with old-cut Diamonds all around and in the centre. Superb level of jeweller craftsmanship depicting a pansy with a gradient of Enamel colours from white in the middle to blue on the edges. The pendant has a relatively large loop in the back so it can accommodate a chain (not included) or a cord and it looks fantastic on a black lace (provided) to wear as a choker. The black lace has a period-correct lock (clip) and can be easily resized. Please take a look at the video. Back in the Victorian days, every little thing had a special meaning. Even more so the flowers. Pansy flowers symbolize romantic love and platonic affection. Pansies also embody thoughtfulness, compassion, remembrance, and free-thinking. White Gold. It is a fine item both for an antique jewelry collection or to be worn with pride. The level of skills that Victorian jewelers possessed is hardly matched in modern times, which makes this brooch absolutely timeless with its value going only up as time goes by.
