FAQs

A wax seal is a small stamped object used historically to impress a personal or familial crest into molten sealing wax to authenticate correspondence.

Antique seals were commonly crafted from sterling silver, brass, bronze, glass, ivory, or semi-precious stones mounted on metal or wooden handles.

Authentic British silver seals typically feature struck hallmarks including a makers mark, standard mark indicating sterling purity, assay office mark, and a date letter.

An antique desk seal can be displayed on a study desk, a mantlepiece, or inside a glass cabinet alongside other vintage desktop accessories to add historical interest.

Antique silver should be gently cleaned with a microfibre cloth to remove dust, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip desirable patination or damage intricate details.
