Waterstons Scottish Bank Sealing Wax - Extra Large Sticks
The Waterstons company has closed their doors as of Spring 2024.
What remains in our stock is all that we have to offer.
Extra long sticks, measuring 8.75" (22cm) long. Banker's Traditional Sealing Wax has been popular since 1752. Banker's wax is a traditional wax, meaning its purpose is to create a tamper evident closure that provided the authenticity of the sender and will break if opened or tampered with.
This traditional hand crafted wax offers a superfine quality with strong adhesiveness well suited to ensuring the security of documents and letters. This fine wax is also recommended for the making of Seals for all diplomas and certificates. The texture of the wax allows a high definition to be achieved, and the consistency allows a variety of uses for commercial purposes. Being a plain stick without any wick the sticks can easily be broken up and fed into a pan or melter for pouring directly onto the surface for larger applications.
This wax has traditionally been used for royal & Catholic ecclesiastical seals.
