Unusual Vintage Silver Owl Wax Seal with Engraved Galleon Ship

1940 - 1960
Description

An unusual and very charming vintage solid silver Wax Seal for using with wax for letter or document seal. This silver seal is a handsome design in the form of an owl on a stand, where clear hallmarks are visible for the London Assay office with a date mark for 1967, Lion Passant and the maker's mark for the silversmith: Wakely & Wheeler. The engraving underneath for stamping on the wax is a wonderful, detailed galleon ship .

  

A lovely item and in great vintage condition, (some light surface scratching to silver stand commensurate with age and mentioned only for accuracy) super as a gift for a letter writer or a collector of stationery items.
