AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This sterling silver wax seal holder is the perfect accessory for everyone who still enjoys sending handwritten letters! It is a nice, hefty accessory, with the grip decorated with an intricate scroll pattern.

Size: 6 cm long, 17 mm in diameter. The holder is suitable for waxing sticks of 8x8 mm. 

Weight: 46.50 grams.

Age: Hallmarked for Birmingham and 1901. The maker's mark is partially faded, but could read 'L&S' for Levi & Salaman, who operated between 1876 and 1916.

Material: Hallmarked for 925/1000 silver.

Condition: In good antique condition with only minor wear, consistent with age. A small amount of red sealing wax is still visible inside the holder.
