It was given to his mother, by her mother when she was a little girl. It was broken by my mother-in-law, who was severely scolded and told that was totally unacceptable behaviour.
The French inscription translates to;
"if you wish to live in total peace,
You listen, You watch and You say nothing. (5 years and 3045 days ago)
