Perpetual Assurance Stone Crest
FOR SALE : PERPETUAL ASSURANCE STONE CREST
This Stone Crest would have taken pride of place upon the Amicable Society for a Perpetual Assurance Office in the City of London.
Amicable Society was founded in London in 1706 by William Talbot (Bishop of Oxford)

The motto of the Amicable Society was prudens simplicitas (prudent simplicity). The choice of creatures (dove perched on top of a serpent) above their coat of Arms may refer to Jesus' saying, be wise as serpents, gentle as doves.
Beneath this are the wings of time followed by the hand shake of trust
Lastly the words Esto Perpetua at the foot of the crest meaning "Be Thou Forever"

size 1.5M high x 1.8M wide
