Early Sterling Silver, Turquoise Armorial Seal Wax Holder or 'Bodkin Case' Antique c17th Century

£1,650.00
Description

Details: A fantastic and wonderfully designed antique likely 17th century or earlier travelling wax holder case with superb armorial crest to the base and turquoise stone set button to open the item. The wax holder is in remarkably good condition for what resembles a possible medieval item. Stamped with a singular flower punch mark to the back edge possibly representative of a town assay or makers punch however we have been unable to identify the marks. The silver has been XRF tested please refer to pictures for breakdown. This is a speculative and interesting item - please let us know if you have any further information that can help us provide more informed listing. This is a wonderful item that would make a perfect gift or addition to any collection. We are more than happy to provide XRF reports for items upon request. 


Condition Report: The item is in condition commensurate with age, all our items are quality conditioned prior to listings however some may have age related signs of wear commensurate with their antique status; please refer to the photos provided as they further inform condition. Please do not hesitate to enquire if you have any questions regarding the product. 

Dimensions:  9 cm (length)  x 2 cm (width).

Total Weight: 31.8 grams.

NB. All items stated as sterling silver, gold, platinum will be tested and/or hallmarked, quality checked and surveyed to ensure quality and consistency. Equally all stones stated (for example 'diamond solitaire ring') will have been tested. Please refer to all the photos and double check dimensions - items are often photographed close up to allow the customer to further view condition & gauge detail. With the majority of items ranging from 100 up to 400 years old please recognise total brand new factory built perfection often isn't compatible with genuine antique items although we do try and ensure our items do come as close as possible!
