Brass Wax Seal Stamp - Scottish Thistle

£25.00

Channel your inner Cyrano and sign off your letters in 17th century style with a wax seal. We are offering some modern archetype symbols to represent you; take your pick for any occasion. In this case, sign off with the image of the prickly Scottish thistle.

These brass seals are not only attractive as objects, but they also create beautifully deep-set embossed images. We recommend using hard, Shellac-based wax for a more authentic, historical and crisp, sharp finish which can be purchased in a range of subtle tones here.

There are many Youtube videos illustrating how to use sealing wax - a spoon and spirit burner are essential accessories. This should always done with care (and by adults only) as the wax can get very hot and should not be handled directly.
