Thread: Wax on Letters

I use one on letters to friends. I picked up a boxed set awhile back. It came with calligraphy pens , ink, 3 stamps, wax in stick form as well as flakes, a brass melting spoon, and a small brass alcohol burner. Lately though I seem to email more than write.

I think putting the wax on personal letters is a gas

The stamps I have seen aren't very impressive, though. Have you considered using leather working stamps? Seems to be an endless number of choices to really personalize the correspondence.

Or, you could get really fancy, and have your own logo made.

That sounds cool. I'm afraid that my letter writing days dwindled years ago with the onset of carpal tunnel. It's too bad, I loved having the ink flow out of a fine writing instrument like a Meisterstuck or Souveran fountain pen. Do you have samples of the different marks you use?
