The ring is centred with a delicate hand-painted porcelain plaque designed in the form of a miniature book, depicting a pansy flower above the inscription “D’Amour”. Together, these elements form the romantic phrase “Pensée d’Amour” - “Thoughts of Love”, drawing upon the rich symbolism of the Victorian language of flowers, in which the pansy represented loving thoughts and affectionate remembrance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"26\" data-end=\"526\"\u003e\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eThe porcelain panel is framed by a decorative rectangular border of finely applied gold granulation.
