This is a seal for making impressions on sealing wax of a painted Easter Egg. The details have been painstakingly crafted to give the illusion of depth, as if the surface was in fact curved like an egg. Click
here for the story of how I got the geometry to work right - it's harder than you think.
A wax seal adds old fashioned panache and class to envelopes and documents. Before self-adhesive envelopes, everyone used a seal of some kind to keep messages private. In our present day of emails and instant messaging, taking the time to write a letter makes a message stand out as important, worth taking the time to think carefully and spend money on paper, ink, wax, postage, etc. A wax seal makes sure that your letter is noticed among the junk mail.
The top of the handle is marked to make it much easier to align the impression and avoid setting it crooked.
Order premium sealing wax through our
main website or
Etsy Store. Sunflower Yellow, Light Blue, or Bubblegum Pink would be fitting color choices for this seal.
Please use caution when working with fire and hot wax to avoid burns.
