- This Wax Seal Stamp box-set gets my...
... seal of approval.
Yes.
Thank you, I'm here all week.
After searching high and low for the best set on Etsy, I'm quite confident that I've found it.
Watch the unboxing and then my first attempt at using it.
The shop is based in Southern China and the seller is very friendly, responsive, and eager to provide the best service possible. I took the slow shipping option, and it took exactly a month to reach me here in Central Europe.

Specifically the option I took was Option K, and the colour of wax I went for was #24.

Nicely done! A return to the art deco concept of beauty in everyday things, so much grander than email. Nicely done on the videography as well!
Thank you Geoffrey! It seems a shame to let go of beautiful traditions completely just because we have ready-made convenient alternatives!
I don't know how if there's much truth to this, but I've heard that schools here in the US are no longer requiring children to learn cursive/script writing.
You've spiced your channel up by incorporating different things, everything is interesting. Shows how being yourself and doing what suits you pays off.
That stamp is marvelous! I'm definitely going to check out the seller. I've been looking for a nice set like this, on and off, for a few years.
So glad you like it, Kitya! I've been looking for the perfect set for ages!
I love a wax seal stamp! I find keeping the stamp in the fridge or pressing it into the frost of a freezer can make the stamp release quicker and the seal image sharper.
You might also like to mix colours of your wax pellets for nice aesthetics and a bit of colour magic if that's your thing.
Love your content, my preferred bookseller thanks you, my bank account does not! Lol
That's a very nice idea! I'll grab a few colours and experiment 😊
Hearing you giddy about things is nice. I too get happy about the "little" things. Your inner child isn't dead. ;) Lovely set.
I wouldn't want to ruin the little octagons. 😅
This set is stunning. Thank you for sharing it with us!!
The little octogons (sealing wax) are very cheap and very easy to buy on Amazon or on Etsy or whatever local online marketplace you use 😊
Really cool a lost art just like writing in cursive.
This was adorable on so many levels. I've been wanting a wax stamp for so long... like my whole life. I'll have to get on that.
I think with wax, taking it off the heat slightly sooner is best for preventing bubbles, but if they happen, pop them with a thin needle or pin.
I've seen people snip the wick of the candle to create a gentler flame, I think that would help to have a more gradual heat exchange, and melt everything before the temperature gets too high
I didn't know I needed this, but I do know now!
Oh wow. My daughter wanted one of these for Christmas, but I couldn’t find one in time for Christmas. This one is very cool! 😎
The ready-made designs are quite lovely too, but if you can make your own design I suppose it makes it that much more special.
i am ordering this because of you, thank you so much!!! I feel like i couldn't find anything like this kit here, THANK YOU!!!
U r one of the coolest people on this site.
You should do a dip pen calligraphy video. I am impressed. Pun intended. :)
Thank you for your kind words, @Duc! I do love to write :)
I see a lot of letter writing in your future - lol.
Looks fantastic!
Hehe! Next task: find and train a raven...
ooh fun!
very professional stamp, take care of it
I'm glad you like it, Pranjal! 😊
Gorgeous!
Very cool ! Congrats and thanks for sharing. Enjoy 😄👍
you always have divine timing, foolish flsh! due to uncertainties and travel regulations i cannot go to visit my lover who lives in switzerland, and we only just decided to write one fashioned style handwritten letters to one another last night. thanks for this review!! i’ll surely be investing
Oh nice! What a lovely idea!
OH! You know how to do calligraphy?! (I'm relatively new around here:)) Love your handwriting. I used to attempt calligraphy as a kid, but got frustrated very quickly and moved on, the Aries that I am lol.
I'll do a video on that soon enough 😄
@@FoolishFishBooks I look forward to that! I absolutely love your videos. :)
@@FoolishFishBooks - yes, please do! I have a calligraphy set I purchased but I too, like the original commenter, got frustrated and haven't tried it since. I'd love to see you do a video in hopes for encouragement 😊
Edit: I just noticed Maynard, that you're an Aries....me too 😂
You have such excellent penmanship! And love the seal design!
Thank you! You're very kind 😄🙏
@@FoolishFishBooks you're welcome, you also have an incredibly relaxing voice, have you ever thought to do guided meditation recordings. I'm sure they would be a great hit 😁
@@oliverseymour4213 I actually do guided meditations for the channel's members 😊👍
@@FoolishFishBooks then I shall have to look into that. If you hadn't been a teacher of religion, you could have been a hypnotist with a voice that calm lol.
Love this. Wax seals are definitely the way forward.
I certainly hope they can make a comeback... 😄
I just put something very similar to this in my cart. Thanks for the review!
Nice! 😁
Awesomely cool!!!💌
In a word - class!
How wonderful! 🤘💜🤘
Yes! I'm so glad you like it too 😄
I love wax seal stamps. The problem I had once I sent it with the post is that the seal could come off due to handling.
Where can I buy good quality red wax that dries with a good gloss?
Very cool!
Yeah, I'm really pleased with this 😄
beautiful
I swear this is for me. Lol
Are you looking forward to Aleister Crowley’s Four Books of Magick by Dr Stephen Skinner? 😊
3:43 could you please tell us the size.
looks like 30mm am i right?
Correct.
Where is your calligraphy pen from?
I'm pretty sure I bought my Lamy pens from Amazon 🙏
Alibaba or Wish for these products :)
As I say, I've not yet found another set that has this exact combination (with pellets rather than candles).
Plus I would never shop with Wish over Etsy...
@@FoolishFishBooks now that you have the stamp, Amazon sells the wax pellets on their own.
3 beads of wax is plenty.. otherwise it gets destroyed in the postal system.
Yes, I tried again with 5 today, and it's still too much. 🙏
I also use 3. Works perfectly!
Is it me or do those pellets look like candy? Lol
Whats that pen it looks magnificent!
It's the Lamy Joy. I'll review that soon too 😉
U know wax seal stamps are still useful so I don't know why not many people use them anymore(probably lazyness).
