Georgian Cupid "Without Sound" Rock Crystal Intaglio Seal Arts & Crafts A cool antique AEI locketDATE: Georgian, c. 1780 A fantastic Georgian rock crystal seal, with an intaglio carving in the base. It's carved to depict cupid carrying a lantern with the words "SANS BRUIT", which translates as "noiselessly" or "without a sound". Presumably the sentiment is something along the lines of "you can't hear love coming", or "love is silent". It's in great condition and dates from the Georgian period, circa 1780.
