Register or Login to view.Nick (Pelling) told to me about a firm in U.K. (Birmingham) that produce manually personalized wax seals and one of them is very similar to that of the parchment. I contacted the owners of the firm and they told me that the shape of the seal represented in their web site is a wax seal commissioned by one of their customers (as they remeber) many years ago and the customer showed them a photo with an old seal taken from a document dated XVIII th century but since it was an old commission they don't have any other informations.
It could be worth asking if the company based in stafford used to be based in birmingham. They are pretty close.
Edit: According to publicly available info on the company, it used to be located in Brierley Hill, and kingswinford before that, which are just west of birmingham. Using google maps streetview, the legal company that was on the street signage at the address in Brierley Hill also moved at the same time to the same new address as the seals company. That company was previously located in stourbridge.
For all intents and purposes, telling any international caller that they are based in "Birmingham" makes complete sense. It's probably the same company.
