 This pendant is close to my heart, having been born & raised in this county. 'The Red Rose of Lancaster was the heraldic badge adopted by the royal House of Lancaster in the 14th century, now representing the county of Lancashire. The exact species or cultivar which it represents is thought to be Rosa gallica officinalis.'
Not only is this a piece with the potential to hold sentimental value, she is a solid, weighty, show stopper of a piece for anyone with a love of gold. She's strong and feminine in a very regal way.

Please Note
All my items have a history, with many being vintage or antique. This piece isn't new, so anticipate signs of wear like slight bends in links, surface wear on gold, and stone scuffs. Expect these characteristics when purchasing pre-loved jewellery. I'll provide detailed descriptions and condition statements to ensure transparency about any possible flaws, feel free to message me with any queries!
