Angelina Jolie on the cover of Esquire magazine

"I love you, Brad" ends a not-so-secret 18-carat golden love-letter from Pitt to Angelina Jolie, offered shortly before the A-list couple flew in for the Cannes film festival last month.

Made by a master Paris engraver, the love-letter pendant, a miniature gold card slipped discreetly into a golden envelope, begins: "I find you in the morning sky, in the sound of children's laughter, in the motion of every stirring wind."

"I love you, Brad," the message ends.

The around 1,500-euro piece of jewelry from Pitt to Jolie also includes a portrait of tiny Pax Thien, the last of three children adopted by the couple who also have a birth daughter, Shiloh, said a spokesman for the French luxury engraver and printer Cassegrain.

Jolie said last month she plans to take an entire year off from acting to spend time with her family in 2008.

Jolie told People magazine's online edition in an interview on the sidelines of the Cannes filmfest that she would take a sabbatical after completing work on several projects later this year.

The couple took their children along to Cannes for the promotion of their new film, "A Mighty Heart". Starring Jolie and produced by Pitt, the movie directed by Michael Winterbottom is about the murder of US reporter Daniel Pearl by Islamic extremists.
