A Charming Antique 19th Century Treen Box With A White Wafer Seal Impression Inside. The Box I Believe Is Made Of Sycamore. The Seal Impression Is Of A Plume Of Feathers On Top Of A Crown.
White seals were often used for formal invitations, such as weddings. This put white-sealed letters into a higher category of importance — not as high as (correctly, formally used) red seals, but something more than your average green or blue.
Condition is good, commensurate with age and use. Structurally sound.
