Sophie Lis reveals the ‘meaningful’ message behind Meghan Markle’s 'love pendant'

If you want to know what Meghan Markle is thinking, just look at her jewelry.

While arranging flowers on her Netflix show, “With Love, Meghan,” the Duchess of Sussex is frequently seen wearing her Sophie Lis Love Pendant, which she first donned in 2020 and has showcased multiple times since.

This exquisite pendant is inspired by the words of 19th-century French poet Rosemonde Gérard in “The Eternal Song.” With diamonds and rubies, the necklace bears the inscription “+ qu’hier” and “- que demain,” conveying the sentiment, “I love you more today than yesterday but less than tomorrow.”

The London jeweler behind the creation shared with Page Six Style that the pendant represents the concept of an enduring and ever-growing love. They also mentioned the initial significance of Meghan wearing the piece, as they supported a dog charity called Wild at Heart in Notting Hill by donating 10% of each sale from the pendant.

Markle, 43, has turned to Lis’ jewelry for some of the most important occasions in her life, wearing a pair of the designer’s Fallen Star Hoop Earrings for her final day as a working royal in March 2020.

Shaped like twin North Stars, the earrings symbolize “protection from evil,” according to Lis.

“Meghan was a fan of us right from the beginning. She became aware of our brand just before she moved to the US, but there was no gifting — she definitely bought her pieces,” she says.

“She’s always been a great supporter and I’m very grateful for her raising awareness of the brand, especially as the storytelling behind each piece is meaningful. Those Fallen Star Earrings are meant to offer guidance and direction; it’s such a nice thought to follow the star.”

Princess Eugenie owns a pair of the same starry hoops, as does actress (and longtime Markle BFF) Abigail Spencer.

Lis’ designs draw inspiration from Earth’s elements, from the sun and moon to the stars.

Most recently, the jeweler launched a stunning range of sparkling mushroom earrings and pendants.

“They bring happiness with a nod to the psychedelic ’60s,” she says. “The Mushroom Collection is a tribute to the extraordinary power of nature; this new line captures the essence of healing and well-being.”

She was inspired by close pal Jess Clark, who runs the mushroom supplement company Mother Made, and says the jewelry has brought the mushrooms “alive.” (Ellie Goulding recently rolled out her own mushroom supplement company, Everystate, so it seems Lis is in great company.)

“My jewelry has always been inspired by things beyond our understanding — the beauty of our world and infinite possibility of the unknown,” Lis says.

“This collection is aimed at bringing joy and empowerment, whilst serving as a gentle reminder that magic can be found in the most unexpected places all around us.”

Plus, she adds of the “uplifting” range, “Anything that makes you smile and give you extra energy can’t be a bad thing.”
