Amor et Virtute Necklace (Sterling Silver)

Style this National Portrait Gallery necklace as you want - layered with other pendants or worn independently.

This handcrafted necklace from 925 Sterling Silver catches the eye with its smooth disc featuring Sir Walter Ralegh’s motto, ‘Amor et Virtute’, meaning love and virtue. The motto appears on a portrait painted when Ralegh’s gallantry and voyages of exploration had established him as a firm favourite with Elizabeth I. His fine clothes and jewels are indications of his status and prosperity.

The necklace is a meaningful token to give to a friend or loved one.
