Rare patriotic medal in 18k (750°/°°) yellow gold, rubies, sapphires and diamonds. This medal engraved at the time of the First World War (1914-1918) represents a rooster, symbol of the French Republic, eyeing the constellation Leo, symbol of England as the sea stretches into the distance and the sun rises. . The legend “Neither YOU WITHOUT ME NOR ME WITHOUT YOU” is taken from Tristan and Iseult written in the 12th century by Marie de France while she was at the court of King Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine. The entire iconographic and literary content of this medal therefore refers to the common history between France and England and their desire to fight a common enemy, Germany during this conflict. We can also think that this medal has a double meaning, less patriotic and more poetic, and that this medal could have been offered to the loved one before leaving for the front. Note that there are very few examples of this jewel which is most often found in silver. Gold models are rare and this is the first ring model we find with diamonds, sapphires and rubies. French work around 1914 made by the jeweler AUGIS, particularly known for the famous love medal “+ YESTERDAY - TOMORROW”. French work made in 1914/ Horse's head hallmark for 18 carat gold, traces of manufacturer's hallmark, A.AUGIS signature on the obverse of the medal and engraved DEPOSE on the reverse. Very good general condition, some scratches from use Diameter: 2.6 cm Weight: 8.92 grams

Authentication & Certification

Charlotte Rey and Anne Borde help individuals who ask themselves a thousand questions when selling their jewelry(s). How much is it worth on the market? Is it solid gold or gold plated? How to identify stones? And, after all, what if it came from a prestigious house?

With the jewel in hand, the founders of Castafiore determine the nature of the materials, the weight of the gold, the carats of the stones, etc. They are also looking for the trace of a hallmark, a sign of a possible renowned jeweler.

This expertise then gives rise to a digital certificate of authenticity registered in the Blockchain (GoodsID), in other words traceable and unfalsifiable; it will accompany the jewel throughout its existence, over the course of its owners.
