Add a refined touch of heritage to your jewellery collection with the Amor et Virtute Stud Earrings in polished 18ct gold vermeil. Part of the National Portrait Gallery Jewellery Collection, these understated yet symbolic earrings are inspired by history and crafted with care.
This mismatched pair bears the Latin motto “Amor et Virtute”, meaning “Love and Virtue”, famously associated with Sir Walter Ralegh—explorer, courtier, and poet who captured the admiration of Queen Elizabeth I. Each earring features one word of the phrase, creating a thoughtful, meaningful pairing that blends historical charm with contemporary elegance.
Designed for pierced ears, they feature secure post fittings with butterfly clasps. Subtle enough for everyday wear yet distinctive in design, they make a timeless gift or a unique addition to your personal collection. For a coordinated look, pair with the matching Amor et Virtute Necklace.
We recommend treating it carefully to ensure you’re the jewellery remains as timeless as the stories it's inspired by. To preserve its beauty and lustre, please avoid direct contact with water and chemical products such as soap, perfume, and abrasive products.
All Licensed to Charm jewellery is designed and handmade in the UK making each piece unique to the wearer.
