I am new to the wax seal community and have started a collection, but right now, my collection consists of modern stamps. I absolutely LOVE crystals, antiques and now wax seals. To have that all roped into one. I’m in heaven. Excellent video. New subscriber.
I have whole collection of England lords from 1800s with wax stamps need to sale it
Please email hello@sigillumseals.co.uk if you have any questions regarding your sale.
Can a sealed letter be mailed via the post office without damaging the seal?
Hi there, yes, you can mail a sealed letter via the post office without damaging the seal. In fact, mailing sealed letters is a common practice. Post offices handle sealed letters carefully to ensure they reach their destination intact and unopened. So, feel free to send your sealed letters through the postal service without worry.
Outstanding presentation. I just uploaded a video discussing and demonstrating an original early American seal in my collection. I should have used a glue gun, but that would have been too easy. 😂 BTW I love how your wax matches your handle (rose quartz?). Cheers from the U.S.A.
Thank you for your comment! We are glad you enjoyed the video.
