Condition Report
The seals are likely to be gold cased, that is a thick outer coating of gold, but perhaps eventually down to a base metal, this would be a typical construction of early 19th century seals, there is an old repair to the top of the mount of the lapis lazuli seal, the chalcedony seal is in good condition for its age, the foil backed rock crystal seal is also in fairly good condition for its age. Height of largest chalcedony seal 29mm, combined gross weight 18 grams
