ANTIQUE VICTORIAN REBUS WAX SEAL FOB INTAGLIO "I HOPE YOU ARE WELL"



I absolutely love these symbolic wax seal fob intaglios.  This one is called a rebus which is defined as a puzzle in which words are represented by combinations of pictures and individual letters.

The intaglio depicts an eye (I), maiden leaning on an anchor (hope), yew tree (you), the letter R (are), and a well (well).   I HOPE YOU ARE WELL.  

Keep a weather eye on Metal Corset II for fine silver pendants created with this amazing rebus wax seal fob intaglio!
