Traditionally cast and silver plated in the ornate Florentine method, these Italian-made sealing wax melting spoons are a useful tool for melting any sealing wax style.

Rose handle spoon has a larger bowl size, now with both sides fluted for right or left hand pouring.

Fluer de Lys handle features a smaller bowl, with a fluted pouring spout on the side.

NEW! Edelweiss handle with extra large bowl, sides are not fluted (photo coming soon)

Each bowl design works wonderfully and allows for the exact placement of your melted wax.

1. Have a heat source available, such as our paraffin tea light
A gas stovetop burner will work in a pinch. 

These spoons are not intended for use with platform-style wax melters (metal platform over tea candle), as the spoon bowls vary in size and may not fit the platform holes in these melters.

Be careful to not overheat the spoon, as the metals may soften.

2. Place 3 or more wax beads, or a small amount of broken bits of wax sticks, into the spoon and hold over the heat until the wax just melts to a thick honey-like consistency.

If the wax is melted until very liquid, it will be too thin, and not take a good impression.

3. Pour the melted wax onto your project and emboss with your stamp.

Waiting a few moments before embossing may create better definition in the wax.
Experiment to find the correct waiting period for the conditions in your area.

Warm the spoon if cool to soften/melt wax residue, and wrap inside a doubled-up paper towel (grabbing the spoon with the paper towel works best).

Spin and rub the spoon inside the towel as you push the towel into the areas you are cleaning.

All wax and soot is easily removed with this method - depending on the amount of residue you are removing you may find you will need to rewarm the spoon or use a paper towel or two.

Be careful of any hot wax on the paper towel!
