A Georgian silver fob set with an engraved cornelian seal.
Fob seals are decorative and functional accessories historically used to seal wax on documents or letters. Attached to pocket watch chains, these small, engraved pieces often featured intricate designs, family crests, or monograms.
Crafted from materials like gold, silver, or gemstones, fob seals reflected the owner's identity and social status. Beyond their practical use, they became fashionable adornments in the 18th and 19th centuries, blending utility with artistry, and remain treasured collectibles today.
