I'll Break Before I Change | Strong and Absolute Convictions

I'll Break Before I Change.  This wax seal necklace pictures an Oak Tree with the French caption reading "Plutôt Rompre Que Plier" meaning Break Rather Than Bend. In Heraldry, the Oak tree is a symbol of virtue, strength and resiliency and denotes steadfastness and endurance. This pendant is symbolic of an individual who is strong and absolute in their beliefs, an individual who will not change or break under pressure, rather, remain steadfast in the storm. They would rather break then change long established beliefs.
