Georgian gold cased seal with a HORSE intaglio c1820

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 seal fob made circa 1820 and would make a lovely charm or if grouped with some other pieces, it could make a very interesting pendant.

Please note this is a smaller sized seal

This is a Georgian gold on metal seal. It is not solid gold and has traces of metal coming through the gold in places.

The seal is set with a foil baced purple glass stone engraved with the intaglio of a horse

The gold seal has an ornate yellow gold on metal carved shank and handle decorated topped with a carved suspension ring.

The seal measures 20mm x 11mm x 9mm.

The seal is in 80% mint condition –rubbed on the edges around the base and the handle with metal showing through the gold casing in places.
