I've never seen a sealing wax seal like this multi-headed one on ebay. All the usual disclaimers apply... I have nothing to do with this auction, nor am I bidding on it. Has anyone seen one like this before?

It looks more like a prop from 'The Witchfinder General' film to me.

Well that just sent me scrambling to find out what 'The Witchfinder General' was about. :yikes: Still, it's such a cool seal.

It is, and it even has a wafer seal at the top.

It's absolutely beautiful. I have seen them before, just can't afford them.

Whoever owned it was obviously a very busy man.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
