VivacityEver Growing Love Small Mixed Clip Necklace with Sister HooksDiamonds, Yellow Gold

Description

Crafted in 18k yellow gold, our Vivacity Small Mixed Clip Necklace features a pair of pavé sister hooks – a pair of hooks fitted together so that one hook makes the other more secure. It’s often used when describing the button hooks on Victorian watch fobs, but really, we like anything that reminds us of “sisters” in the literal sense, or the idea of “sisterhood" in general.

Our Vivacity Oversized Medallion, in 18k yellow and white gold with pavé diamonds, features symbols that represent the Latin word vivacitas, or life force. The vivacity tenet encourages us to live a life filled with exploration, discovery, and learning. The plus and minus signs denote a French expression: qu'hier, que demain, meaning ''more than yesterday and less than tomorrow,'' a phrase that speaks to an ever-growing love and an ever-expanding life. Wings at the top of the medallion are signs to soar in spite of our doubts and fears. If not now, when?

This necklace can be worn 2 different ways:
1. As a 36" continuous chain
2. As a wrapped necklace

Ever-Growing

The plus and minus signs, in combination with two french phrases: Qu'hier, Que Demain translated as "Today more than yesterday and less thank tomorrow" representing the accumulation of experiences that produce more love, a larger heart, and a fuller life: resulting in memories of treasured life that builds, today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow.

Distilled from a couplet taken from the poem "L'eternelle chanson" that has stood the test of time and continues to inspire with even a single line of verse. Written in 1889 by Rosamonde Gerard.

Au jourd'hui plus qu'hier et bien moins que demain
Today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow

Symbolic of ever-growing love and an ever-growing life, each moment a gift.

Plus & Minus

The plus and minus signs represent a French phrase: qu'hier que demain, taken from the 1889 poem, "L'Eternelle Chanson" by Rosamonde Gerard - "more than yesterday and less than tomorrow." This beautiful sentiment is an homage to a generous heart and ever-growing love, a larger heart, and the accumulation of memories of a treasured life.
