Embrace timeless elegance and historical symbolism with the Amor et Virtute Necklace in 18ct gold vermeil, part of the National Portrait Gallery Jewellery Collection. This refined pendant is inspired by the legacy of Sir Walter Ralegh, whose gallantry and intellect made him a revered figure in the court of Queen Elizabeth I.
The necklace features a smooth, polished disc engraved with Ralegh’s iconic motto, “Amor et Virtute”, meaning “Love and Virtue”—a perfect balance of affection and strength. This elegant phrase, rooted in Elizabethan values, brings a deeper meaning to your everyday jewellery collection.
Handcrafted with care and finished in warm 18ct gold vermeil, this versatile piece can be worn on its own or layered with other necklaces to create a meaningful and personal look. It also makes a thoughtful and symbolic gift, beautifully presented in National Portrait Gallery branded packaging.
