Did you know?..............

SINCE TIME IMMEMORIAL, THE SEAL HAS SERVED AS A STAMP OF INDISPUTABLE AUTHENTICITY JUST AS A SIGNATURE IS ACCEPTED IN THE WORLD TODAY.

ROYALTY AND GOVERNMENTS USED THERE OWN SEAL TO AFFIX TO PROCLAMATIONS TO GIVE THEM THE AUTHORITATIVE STAMP OF APPROVAL. THE FIRST GREAT SEAL OF ENGLAND WAS THAT OF EDWARD THE CONFESSOR, IMPRESSIONS OF WHICH CAN STILL BE FOUND, DURING THIS TIME ALMOST EVERYONE HAD THEIR OWN SEAL, AND WHILE MOST PEOPLE HAD JUST ONE. ROYALTY WOULD OWN SEVERAL; INCLUDING THEIR GREAT SEAL, AS WELL AS SEALS FOR ALL THEIR COURTS AND OFFICIALS. IT WAS COMMON PRACTICE TO DESTROY THE SEALS WHEN THE OWNER DIED, WHICH IS THE REASON SO FEW OF THE ORIGINAL SEALS ARE STILL IN EXISTENCE TODAY.

IN MEDIEVAL TIMES, BETROTHALS WERE PRE ARRANGED - THEREFORE TRUE WORDS OF LOVE WERE SECRETLY WRITTEN AND THE ENVELOPE'S CONTENTS SECURED BY A WAX SEAL, SO THAT THE RECIPIENT COULD BE ASSURED THAT THEIR PASSION WOULD BE UNKNOWN TO OTHERS.

BY USING YOUR OWN SEAL WITH OUR GENUINE SEALING WAX, YOU WILL UPHOLD THIS TIME HONOURED TRADITION, EVEN IN TODAY'S HI-TECH WORLD. FROM A TEENAGER TO A HEAD-OF-STATE, A PERSONAL SEAL LENDS DIGNITY, PRESTIGE, AND A PERSONAL FLAIR TO LETTERS, NOTES, CARDS AND EVEN GIFT-PACKAGING.

TO USE LIGHT THE TAPER ON THE WAX STICK AND ALLOW A POOL OF MELTED WAX TO COLLECT ON THE SURFACE TO BE SEALED. THEN PRESS YOUR SEAL INTO THE WAX, HOLD DOWN FOR A FEW SECONDS AND SLOWLY REMOVE FOR A PERFECT WAX SEAL IMPRESSION.
