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 solid gold seal. The seal has been tested for the gold purity and is between 15K and 18K but please note it does not have any assay marks
The heavy and top quality shank has a large oval base set with a red hardstone engraved with an intaglio of Atlas holding the world on his shoulders. The detailing is exquisite.
The shank has milled stepped sides and a strut handle with a suspension loop
The seal measures 34mm x 30mm x 22mm and is in 95% mint condition – light wear only.
