A scene imbued with profound symbolism and hidden meanings unfolds upon a jade pedestal, symbolizing strength and eternity. This exquisite jewellery seal stamp, part of the Oriental Horoscope collection, is crafted by the seasoned professionals at the House of Lobortas. Here, an elegant rat gracefully perches atop a knight’s helmet. A heraldic sign peeks out from beneath the helmet, adding historical significance and aristocratic grandeur to the composition. Beside the helmet, two swords stand ready to defend their totem animal.

The central figure of this sculptural composition is a noble rat, whose knightly attributes give rise to an extraordinary interweaving of symbols drawn from myths and legends, where strength and artfulness combine to achieve great goals.

In the Chinese horoscope, the rat is the first sign of the zodiac, symbolizing insight, resourcefulness, and the ability to survive. People born in the year of the Rat possess special qualities such as intelligence, charm, and determination. They know how to utilize their resources and often find a way out of the most challenging situations. The scene of the jewellery composition, depicting a rat on a knight’s helmet, symbolizes security and strategic positioning, the ability to adapt and find benefits even in seemingly unsuitable circumstances.

The knight’s helmet, adorned with its heraldic sign, symbolizes honour, valour, and historical heritage. The two swords standing side by side represent strength and readiness to defend. In the hands of a rat, they become not merely weapons but symbols of its ability to protect its interests and loved ones. This speaks of resilience and a fighting spirit, hidden beneath external fragility and grace. The jade plinth bestows even greater significance upon the entire composition, enhancing the symbolism of the rat and adding nobility and grace.

The jewellery sculptural composition, titled “The Rat,” serves as a reminder of the importance of intelligence and cunning in achieving goals, the ability to adapt and find ways to succeed in the most unexpected circumstances. It is a work of art filled with deep meaning and elegance, reflecting all the qualities that make people born in the year of the Rat so unique and outstanding.
