St George and the dragon brooch: St George and the Dragon brooch - the legend of St George and the dragon is ancient: a dragon made its lair next to the water source for a town so in order to collect water the townspeople had to distract the dragon with a human sacrifice, which they chose by drawing lots. One day the princess was chosen, but St George rescued her by slaying the dragon. This gold-plated and enamelled brooch is modelled on one from the workshop of Froment-Meurice and Francoise Desire, Paris, 1855.
Jewellery Care
We wish for you to enjoy your jewellery for as long as possible, and therefore recommend you read the following care instructions.
Please do not expose the jewellery to harsh chemicals, extreme temperatures or sunlight for a prolonged period.
Please make sure to apply cosmetics, perfume and hairspray prior to putting on the jewellery to avoid possible blemishing and discolouration.
Do remove the jewellery when performing any activity which may cause damage to the product, e.g. exercising, showering or performing household tasks.
Store each piece of jewellery separately as constant brushing together can damage the finish.
Acid in your skin and fragrances can attack the plated finish and so from time to time you should gently wash the items in your hands with warm soapy water.
Do not use brushes or cloths. Rinse in warm water and dry carefully.
Avoid using Ultrasonic jewellery cleaner which can dislodge the stones.
