Extra long sticks, measuring 8.75" (22cm) long.  Banker's Traditional Sealing Wax has been popular since 1752.  Banker's wax is a traditional wax, meaning its purpose is to create a tamper evident closure that provided the authenticity of the sender and will break if opened or tampered with.

This traditional hand crafted wax offers a superfine quality with strong adhesiveness well suited to ensuring the security of documents and letters. This fine wax is also recommended for the making of Seals for all diplomas and certificates. The texture of the wax allows a high definition to be achieved, and the consistency allows a variety of uses for commercial purposes. Being a plain stick without any wick the sticks can easily be broken up and fed into a pan or melter for pouring directly onto the surface for larger applications.

This wax has traditionally been used for royal & Catholic ecclesiastical seals.

  • Each wickless stick is 8.75" x 0.75" | 22cm x 15mm
  • Please estimate 40+ seals per stick when used with 0.75" stamp.
  • Very strong binding wax that will crack/break when purposefully flexed.
  • Handmade in small batches, with 300+ year old recipe.
  • High gloss finish in rich colors.
  • Choose from red, silver, and gold. 

This is a very smooth, high shine wax handmade in Scotland, which takes wonderfully crisp and detailed impressions.

Being a solid stick without any wick, the sticks can easily be broken up
and fed into a melting pot or spoon for pouring directly onto one's application or melted directly with a flame.

Excellent Product - Nicely Packaged - Enjoyed the Candy!

I got three sticks of the Waterstons Scottish Bank of England Wickless Sealing Wax, red. These are hefty sticks and they were well packaged: 3 sticks, wrapped in tissue paper, wrapped in bubble-wrap, secured in place by bunches of tissue paper and sealed in a box with instructions, a ballpoint pen and a piece of candy. My first seal with this wax was the also the first time I'd used wax in the rather traditional "melt the wax stick over a flame and rub it on the letter before pressing the seal onto the wax"-technique. It works very well and I ended up with some really nice seals. I have some flexible wax from another retailer, but I really like the Banker's wax and am now looking for letters to write and seals to make! I made one 35mm seal with a rather complicated coat of arms and used a silver ink pen to highlight the design. Another seal is just my initials, with no highlights.

Always love opening up your packages!

“Brittle” sealing wax is harder and harder to find, thanks!

Wickless sealing wax

Very positive. My cheap wax was easy to use; your wax requires a bit of practice to heat it properly and gauge exactly how much is needed. I’ve learned not to rush! The results are improving. I love the authentic carmine colour. Long ago my father kept a stick of banker’s wax in his office and yours is just like it. My current project is to learn how to fold and secure letters according to practices from the XV to the XIX centuries. I started with the MIT models (on Vimeo and YouTube) and now I’m trying to decipher techniques from the folds of letters in Canadian archives. I’m very glad to have found your company as a resource. Your response to my order was immediate and your shipping was fast. Congratulations to you on starting and maintaining a company with such high standards of production and service.

Sealing wax

I loved the no wick sealing wax. It came quickly and had such a sweet wrapping. A small family business is the kind of business I like to support. They put extra thought into every step of the way. The packaging was great had little extras that made it special. I liked the way they expressed their appreciation for my business and had nice design The wax was perfect for melting and using to seal my presents (instead of tape) for Christmas. This was a family tradition that my grandparents always did. Thank you for a great product and customer service.
