This is a seal for making impressions on sealing wax of the Celtic Trinity, or
Triquetra. It has many possible meanings, most commonly the Christian Trinity of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, however many modern Pagans also use it as a holy symbol or sign of protection. It is mostly associated with Irish culture, but is also found in other cultures of Northern Europe.
A wax seal adds old fashioned panache and class to envelopes and documents. Before self-adhesive envelopes, everyone used a seal of some kind to keep messages private. In our present day of emails and instant messaging, taking the time to write a letter makes a message stand out as important, worth taking the time to think carefully and spend money on paper, ink, wax, postage, etc. A wax seal makes sure that your letter is noticed among the junk mail.
The top of the handle is marked to make it much easier to align the impression and avoid setting it crooked.
Premium sealing wax can be ordered through our
main website or
Etsy Store.
Please use caution when working with fire and hot wax to avoid burns.
This symbol is also available as a
signet ring.
