Stock No. 3145	Queen Anne seal and brass sealing wax holder
	Very ingeniously constructed Queen Anne brass sealing wax holder with iron seal on base. Circa 1710. The brass holder is of a rectangular, tapered and shaped form with a hinged lid. The top of the lid is engraved with a typically Queen Anne design. The front and back of the body have a small decorative design somewhat like a coronet. The centre of the front design incorporates a button which, when pressed, opens the hinged lid. The base is an iron seal with the bust of Queen Anne and the legend "Anna Regina".

Condition :-Very good condition with the hinge mechanism in perfect order
Circa :- 1710
Size :- 3.1 inches (7.9 cm) long x 0.5 inches (1.3 cm) wide x 0.5 inches (1.3 cm) deep at widest and deepest points
This is a most attractive object from the Queen Anne era which can still be used to-day. The concealed button which releases the sprung lid is a neat piece of engineering.
