Wax Seal Containers

[Kelly Parkes]

I am in Vancouver, BC Canada and would like to find out where I can obtain some wax seal containers. When I hand engrave a reverse crest, I make a wax seal for my client to keep. I have seen the little containers that people have stored their wax seals in and would like to protect my wax seals that I give to my clients in those same containers which have a lid. Any ideas or photos of the containers?

Kelly,

Rio Grande has an entire catalog about packages for jewelery - boxes, bags, displays, etc. The web site is riogrande.com. There is probably something on their site or in the catalog that would work for you.

Kelly, Lee Valley Tools has a small round aluminum container with a see through top which, while not elegant, would do the job.They are available in a variety of sizes and come in packs of 6-20 in a metal case.

ps if the link doesn't work they are called "watchmakers cases" in the woodworking section.
