Make an impression with this interesting antique 19th century desk wax seal depicting an owl, a book holding the original owners initials WR, the scales of justice, a sword and a battle axe surmounted by the Latin motto FIDES ET TIME which translates FAITH AND FEAR.

Please review the photos carefully as they are the most important part of the description. Also, some of the antique seals are very large, some very small, and I have carefully measured each, see below.

So much mystery but I'll leave the enjoyment of the research to you. 

- approximate height - 3 1/2“ (85mm)
- matrix measurement - almost 1 1/4" x 1" (27mm x 23mm)
- matrix metal - yellow metal, perhaps bronze
- handle - a turned light wood

All sales final on antique wax seals - no returns

Go make some history!
