- symbolism -
A guardian angel is an angel that is assigned to protect and guide a particular person, group, kingdom, or country.

Impressed with a utilitarian steel seal from 1820, it's got a strange shape that makes me wonder if it was meant to be a seal mold, likely a wax seal die for a seal maker.
It's entirely possible that the seal was engraved to honor the beautiful painting by Pietro da Cortona, 1656, titled The Guardian Angel. He painted it for the then Pope Alexander VII (born Fabio Chigi), who requested it together with a pendant with the archangel Michael.
