Vintage Augis UnoAErre Italian Love Medal 18k

An Italian version of the popular Médaille d’Amour designed by French jeweler Alphonse Augis, referencing a line of Rosemonde Gérard's love poem, "plus qu’hier, moins que demain". The poem describes love that grows day by day, today "more than yesterday and less than tomorrow"- such a sweet sentiment on a beautifully designed piece. 

The majority of these charms were made in French, much more rarely Spanish and Italian translated versions are found. The Italian reads "più di ieri, meno di domani." The hallmarks indicate that this was made by Italian jeweler UnoAErre, with official licensing from Augis. The back is engraved with three names "Nimo, Nadia, Emilia", and the date 5. 9. 74, which can be removed by a jeweler.
