The Jean Jean "Loyal friend" Cachet is in French with double-sided images and text as follows:

side 1 ∙ a dog seated, at attention, in front of a tombstone with an hourglass on top. In French, the phrase reads "le temps passe, l'amitié reste / time passes, friendship remains."
side 2 ∙ day of the week, "Samedi / Saturday."

On one side, a loyal dog sits in front of a tombstone with an hourglass on top. The translation of the French motto accompanying is, "time passes, friendship remains." What better way to symbolize the unbreakable bond of a long, loyal friendship than a dog, faithful to its owner even after death? An incredible seal for a life-long friend or dog lover. The other side of the seal reads, simply and in pretty typeset, "Samedi / Saturday."

THE COLLECTION // The Cachet Collection - a captivating range of reversible, antique wax seal jewelry - is my serenade to Victoriana.

The Victorians used wax seals to stamp all of their correspondence and the choice of which seal to use was intensely personal and powerful. The seal was the first thing that the reader would see - a preview to what was written inside. News of a death required a somber seal with a phrase of comfort, a "billet doux" to a lover something tender or playful, and a business contract perhaps just stamped with the day of the week.

With the Cachet Collection, antique wax seals become wearable "objets d'art": small reminders of the big sentiments that rule us all. The messages and images on the seals are timeless, carrying just as much meaning for the modern woman as they did for the Victorians almost two centuries ago. Cast from early 19th century artifacts, hand-finished with love in Michigan, and designed to be worn every day.
