Inspired by Nell Gwyn and the portrait depicting her as Venus, goddess of love and beauty. Rising from humble beginnings to become a successful Restoration actress and mistress of Charles II, Nell remained remarkably popular with the public. Her humour, warmth and celebrated wit distinguished her from the King’s other mistresses. Portraying her as Venus elevated her beauty and sensuality through classical mythology, while reflecting her intimate place within the King’s affections.
A miniture replica of the Venus de Milo, whose serene face has captivated generations from her home in the Louvre Museum.
This elegant pendant is handmade in fine silver, capturing the goddess’s timeless profile with sculptural delicacy, finished with sterling silver findings and each piece carries the subtle individuality of the maker’s hand. Wear it as a symbol of beauty, mystery and classical grace, a fragment of ancient inspiration transformed into modern adornment. A luminous keepsake for those drawn to art, mythology and the eternal allure of Venus and Nell, reimagined anew.

Frequently Asked Questions
Jewellery Care
Caring for Your Fine Silver Jewellery
Your fine silver jewellery has been thoughtfully crafted to be treasured for years to come. With time, silver may naturally develop a gentle patina, adding depth and character to each piece.
To preserve its beauty, store your jewellery separately in a soft, dry pouch or lined jewellery box. Keep it away from moisture, direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Avoid contact with perfume, cosmetics, hairspray, household products, chlorine and salt water. We recommend removing your jewellery before bathing, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
To restore its lustre, polish gently with a soft silver polishing cloth. Please avoid abrasive cleaners, brushes and harsh chemicals, particularly on pieces with delicate or intricate detailing.
Frequent wear can slow down tarnishing, as the natural oils in your skin help protect the metal.
Handle your jewellery with care and it will continue to tell its story for generations.
