- In 1785, when Maria Anne Fitzherbert opened a love letter from her admirer, Prince George of Wales, she wasn’t expecting to find an eye gazing intently back at her.
- The prince had fallen in love with Fitzherbert, but their courtship had been disastrous.
- Royal laws forbade a Catholic widow like his beloved from becoming a monarch.
- But the prince was determined to marry her and he wrote her a letter containing a rare, spellbinding gift, a miniature painting of George's own right eye.
- Eye miniatures, also known as lover's eyes, cropped up across Britain and were in vogue for around half a century.
- As with the royal couple, most were commissioned as gifts expressing devotion between loved ones.
- All were intimate and exceedingly precious, meant to be tucked into pockets, or pinned close to the heart.
- The Lover's Eyes collection is inspired by this fascinating tradition, bringing into the 21st century a series of functional objects that seem to look back at us.
- In this case, a vase featuring an eye etched in vivid detail on the porcelain.
- It is decorated in a combination of intense Saxony blue and golden luster on white porcelain.
- A creation full of meaning, both functional and hypnotic.
