FREE UK DELIVERY

£25 International Delivery

A beautifully symbolic antique French Augis love token dating to the 1920s, crafted in rich 18ct gold and adorned with vivid baguette-cut rubies. Steeped in romance and sentiment, this is a piece that carries both history and meaning in equal measure.

The pendant features the iconic "Qu’Hier Que Demain" motif, translating to "More than yesterday, less than tomorrow" a phrase inspired by the poetry of Rosemonde Gérard and one that has become synonymous with the celebrated Augis love tokens. At its centre sit two vibrant ruby accents, providing a beautiful flash of colour against the finely textured gold ground.

Measuring approximately 17mm in diameter and weighing 2.2g, the pendant has a delicate yet distinctive presence. The beautifully detailed scalloped border catches the light from every angle, while the warm gold tones enhance its timeless appeal. The jump ring displays a consistent patina and colour, suggesting it is likely original to the piece.

Augis love tokens have become highly collectible amongst jewellery lovers and collectors alike, prized for their romantic symbolism, exceptional French craftsmanship, and enduring desirability. Rarely does a piece capture sentiment, history, and beauty so effortlessly.

The pendant is suspended from a complementary vintage 16 inch 9ct gold Singapore twist chain. While not original to the pendant, it pairs beautifully with the piece and its intricate design catches the light wonderfully, creating an elegant and wearable antique treasure ready to be loved for another generation.
