A rare antique Georgian era (1714-1836) intaglio seal fob in a silver gilt mount. The fob holds a rectangle-shaped agate intaglio, carved with a rebus consisting of a bee over the word 'CONSTANT', which together can be read as 'be constant' (meaning to stand with something or someone, and not waver). This unique piece is perfect for wear as a pendant or charm.
