A beautiful antique Georgian wax seal fob or pendant. Early 19th century. It
has a beautiful ornate hand chased floral design. Flowers and leaves. I have
not tested the metal. So selling as gold tone. The glass wax seal shows a lot of wear.
A lot of chips around the edges of the glass as well as scratches. For the life of me
I cannot make out what the seal depicts. I see it being everything from a flower
basket, a man on a horse...to a cannon. It also has some traces of red paint
behind the seal. Most of the paint is gone. This piece dates to around
1800 to the 1820s.
Measurements:
Height: 1 1/8"
Widest Point: 3/4" x 5/8"
Condition:
---The glass wax seal shows a lot of wear. Chips around the edges
of the glass as well as scratches.
---Traces of red paint behind the glass seal.
---Some discoloration on the metal.
