GEORGIAN OR VICTORIAN WINGED CHERUB OR CUPID AND HEART INTAGLIO MOTTO WAX SEAL



This is one of the sweetest glass intaglio seals from my collection.  The engraving depicts a winged cherub or cupid plucking a heart from thorny branches.  

The French sentiment above, "Nul Plaisir sans Peine" translates to "Pleasure without penalty" or "Pleasure without pain."

Sterling silver pendants with this impression will soon be listed to Metal Corset II.  

So keep a weather eye!
