This is seal was designed to be used with hot wax for sealing letters.

I have made an impression of this seal using hot wax to show that the seal works as intended and also to give a clearer image of the intaglio.

The wax impression comes in a small plastic case and is included with the seal.

This is a very small gilt seal fob. It is a charm size and perfect to put on a charm bracelet or add to a few more pieces to make an interesting pendant

 

The gilt seal has a round base set with a green stone. The stone is engraved with the intaglio of Well with the words “fare” - Farewell.

 

The seal has a carved base and a strut handle topped with a suspension loop and gilt split ring

 

The seal measures 15mm x 8mm and is in 90% mint condition – light wear only
