Seal engraving
Seal engraving, otherwise known as ‘Intaglio’ is an ancient craft executed by tools that have remained unchanged for hundreds of years.
Having a sound understanding of heraldic law our team will carve your coat of arms, crest or clan badge, in reverse, onto your desired ring, thus creating a negative, from which we then create a positive three-dimensional impression in a wax seal.
Each ring be it our own or one you have supplied us with, will come within our unique boxed gift-set. This includes an encapsulated wax impression (we use ‘Bank of England’ quality wax which gives a high definition impression), a couple of wax sticks and instructions on how to use. As part part of our service we are happy to assist in researching family names. If you do not have artwork or photos we can also work from old wax impressions or an heraldic description of the crest.
It is possible for us to seal engrave into silver, gold, platinum and stone e.g. Sardonyx, bloodstone, Lapis Lazuli. If you would like us to supply you a ring please see our sister site www.rebussignetrings.com.
