A wonderful late georgian era Garnet pendant, created by our jeweller from a larger brooch, the 6 Garnets set in a pansy shape. With the lovely meaning taken from the french 'je pensee' or 'to think', they would be given to the wearer to mean 'think of me'. 
 
The flat cut Garnets are all in fantastic antique condition, held in closed back crimped collet settings and likely foiled to give their vibrant red lovely glow.
