This unique piece had a previous life in France.

The story: heart-shaped medallions belong to the family of sentimental jewelry, dedicated to celebrating a loved one. Known in the United Kingdom as “Forget-me-not” and popularized by Queen Victoria, they often honored the “”forget-me-not” flower. In France, it is not a designated flower that is found in these designs, but the cherry,which remains a recurring motif of medallions of this type.
