Anne Elliot

Inspired by Anne Elliot, this bar soap smells of a English Lavender, with rose, gardenia and jasmine. Topped with lavender buds and glitter for her beauty and sea salt for her tears of regret, it is a reflection of Anne herself.

The pale uniform blue of the bar represents her loyal and constant heart, which mirrors the constancy of Captain Wentworth, as shown in our companion artisan soap, Captain Wentworth’s Constancy.

“But if Anne will stay, no one so proper, so capable as Anne.” ~Captain Wentworth.

“I was right in submitting to her, and that if I had done otherwise, I should have suffered more in continuing the engagement than I did even in giving it up, because I should have suffered in my conscience. I have now, as far as such a sentiment is allowable in human nature, nothing to reproach myself with; and if I mistake not, a strong sense of duty is no bad part of a woman’s portion.” ~Anne Elliot’s final speech in Jane Austen’s Persuasion, defending herself for yielding to the persuasion of Lady Russell.
