A deeply touching early Victorian mourning brooch, rich in personal history and sentiment.
Designed in classic locket form, this brooch features a central glazed compartment which still retains the original woven hair of the departed. Hairwork was an especially intimate element of mourning jewellery in the early Victorian era, serving as a tangible and deeply personal keepsake at a time when photography was still in its infancy. The brooch also features a loop attachment meaning it can also be worn as a pendant making it very wearable.
The reverse of the brooch is formed from a substantial 9 carat gold panel, hand engraved with the dedication: “Rv E King Jv C Slefser 1847.” Such inscriptions anchor the piece firmly in its historical moment, transforming it from an object of adornment into a recorded act of remembrance.
The simplicity and restraint of the design are entirely in keeping with early Victorian mourning aesthetics, where meaning and memory took precedence over ornamentation. It appears this may have been for a religious individual RV maybe referring to a reverend, another reason it maybe a more paired back design.
A moving and authentic mourning jewel from the mid 19th century, created to honour, remember, and hold close the memory of loved ones.

Wow - my new favorites 💜👍😀
Scent: Retinol, Size: 17 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I just purchased this and tried it last night for the first time along with the firming version. I didn't take photos because I was skeptical as a product I had purchased from a different line for more money didn't work. This morning I notice that not only does my skin feel more hydrated but the texture appears more smooth. I recently turned 75 & lost my husband a few months ago and having been a care giver for awhile and put taking care of me aside. These products and body wash are great and I like the fragrance.
Please give them a try. To have something show this much difference over night is incredible. They are also affordable which is a plus for me. Thank you Olay.

Soap cleans and feels just as amazing as it smells.
Scent: Mint, Size: 3.98 Ounce (Pack of 6)
Great soap that feels just as amazing as it smells. I've used this product for years, purchasing this soap locally from a number of different vendors. However, the last or more, I've found it difficult to find this soap as local vendors in my are no longer seem to distribute/sell it any longer. I am very happy to have found it her on Amazon from such an amazing seller. I would recommend giving this soap a try if you haven't ever before.

A fair priced soap with a lovely smell! It's been a long search to find a bar both cheap and doesn't make me feel icky and dry. This bar is the treasure at the end of the search, very lovely.
