"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old Time is still a-flying; & this same flower that smiles today Tomorrow will be dying." (Robert Herrick 1591-1674) in heraldry, the rose symbol holds a special meaning of hope & joy. The antique wax seal used in creating this charm dates back to the early 1800's, it originates from England.

Please note that the wax seal charm has been through a oxidization process to give it an antique, vintage patina.
