Safe Harbour – Bronze Greyhound and Anchor Wax Seal Pendant
£116.00 - £149.00£0.00
A greyhound races above - swift, loyal, enduring. Anchors steady the shield below, symbols of resilience and survival. At the top, a bird perches with open wings, watching over the whole. This design speaks to strength weathered through hardship and the steady calm of finding safe ground at last.
Cast from a mid-19th-century British wax seal, the pendant bears the Latin phrase Post tot naufragia portum, meaning “After so many shipwrecks, a safe harbor.” It’s a tribute to the storms we navigate and the peace we earn, a symbol of homecoming in every sense.
Cast in solid bronze, a metal prized for its warmth and timeless beauty, and finished with care in our small Nova Scotia studio. Includes a meaning card, highlighting the symbolism and seal’s origin.
