"The Art of Sealing a Letter" Do not begin by thrusting the end of the wax into the flame and conveying it in a flaming spatter to your envelope. Take plenty of time and hold the wax above the flame of the candle, but not near enough to burn; a burnt wax makes a streaky seal and is hard to manage. When the wax has gradually softened, apply it with a circular movement upon the place to be sealed, rub it around and down until you have a circle of proper size and thickness and apply the seal. The result should be a clear-cut impression. These instructions were found in a wax seal boxed set from the early 1900's Today, sealing wax is used by lovers of refined correspondence and those who require sealing wax for special occasions such as wedding invitations, diplomas and certificates of distinction. |

PLEASE NOTE! Most sealing wax placed on the
outside of an envelope will
not survive the trip through the postal service's automated mail
handling
equipment. The Faux Wax listed above has a better chance than most for
arriving intact, but even this can sometimes fall off while in the
postal service's hands.
