This sterling silver wax seal amulet was made by hand and is perfect, meaningful jewelry to gift or keep...
This sweet wax seal pendant was made from the cast of an early 18th century wax seal. This was seal was carved into the hard stone carnelian by hand and is a miniature work of art in it's own right. It features a picture of a flying cupid with a heart in his hands. He is leaving two hearts behind on top of a drum (heartbeat???) and the seal states..... Un Me Suffit......... One is enough for me!
This is a lovely sentimental piece of georgian art and was to seal correspondence in the 1700's.......

Wax Seal Jewelry......
Each piece offered for sale is an imprint or cast of an antique wax seal from my personal collection. I use 100% sterling silver as this has the strength and durability needed for a piece of jewelry that is to be worn for years. All the jumps rings, clasps etc, are also sterling silver and each part is soldered, also for strength and durability. My intention is to make a piece that could become an heirloom too and for it to last generations.
Each piece is individually handmade and therefore no two pieces will be exactly the same, they will however be extremely similar. The mark of the maker has been purposely left on the casts. The signs of age, cracks and tool marks all add to the charm of the piece and are an intentional feature.
