Beskrivelse fra sælger
Attention: due to customs regulations we can only ship inside the European Union. Please ensure you have a valid EU shipping address before placing a bid.
Ancient Roman bronze seal box, used to seal important documents, sealed together with wax. Oval shape box with a hinged lid which is decorated with a series of concentric raised circles. The underside shows the characteristic perforations used in seal boxes.
-> Seal boxes were used throughout the Roman world to safeguard the integrity of sealed correspondence and goods. By enclosing the wax seal, they ensured that any interference would be immediately visible.
Length: ± 27,1 mm
Width: ± 17,2 mm
Height: ± 7,7 mm
Good and solid condition, complete with lid and hinge. Appealing olive-green patina and signs of wear, consistent with age and use.
Certificate of Authenticity (PDF) is available upon request for all lots with a hammer price of €100 or higher.
-> Roman seal boxes were small hinged metal containers, usually cast in bronze, made to protect the wax seal which was used to fasten and authenticate an item. They were chiefly employed on letters, documents, and parcels: a cord was threaded through the box, secured with wax, and then impressed with a signet, helping to show whether the contents had been opened or interfered with in transit.
