About the Item
Introducing a remarkable piece: the Hester Bateman Georgian Silver Wax Seal. Adorned with the distinguished lion passant and HB markings, this seal stands at a height of 2.5 cm with a width of 1.8 cm and weighs 10 grams in total.
This is an exquisite Georgian silver fob seal featuring a coat of arms described as follows: " In domino confido '' which would translate in English '' In god we trust ''
Hallmarked with lions mark and maker's mark.
Made in England, Circa 1780's
During the Georgian era, seals played a crucial role as protectors of important documents. Following the passing of her husband, Hester Bateman, then 52 years old with a sizable family, took charge of his business. Recognized as Britain's premier silversmith, she ascended to prominence in 1760, steering the enterprise for three decades until her retirement in 1790. Bateman's mastery, celebrated for its radiant engravings and meticulously crafted edges, continues to be highly sought-after for its grace and precision.
