Forget me nots in an old German tale were discovered by two lovers walking by a river one day. After picking a beautiful bouquet of blue flowers for his loved one the poor gentleman sadly fell in the river and was swept away but before he vanished he yelled out Forget-me-not! giving the flowers their name and a long lasting symbolism of love and remembrance.
A stunning brooch which comes with a secure catch to hold it securely in place.
