1 1/4 inch Pansy

While its name may be derived from the French word for "thought" (“pensée”), it is the heart, not the head, from which the beautiful Pansy earns its primary association. The small pansy necklace is perfect for layering as a center piece.  It was the Pansy which Shakespeare chose in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" as the flower whose nectar was a potent love potion that would, "make a man or woman madly dote upon the next live creature that it sees."

The name "pansy" is derived from the French word pensée, which means “thought.”

William Shakespeare wrote about the progenitor of the pansy, the heartsease, in “A Midsummer Night's Dream where it is the ingredient of a love potion. When it is "on sleeping eyelids laid, will make a man or woman madly dote upon the next live creature that it sees.”
