This extraordinary Palais Royal rectangular seal set, dating to the mid-nineteenth century, contains seventeen double-sided disks, for a total of thirty-four engraved designs.

Collected by Kathryn Hastings years before the public emergence of her work, this piece became part of the artistic foundation from which much of her visual world would later grow, and the development of technique elevating wax seals from craft to fine art. It was the first large-format étui seal in her collection, used during the earliest formation of her artistic practice and philosophy surrounding seals, symbolism, and correspondence.

Within the disks are motifs that would later become deeply associated with Kathryn’s work, including the Cherub on Spaniel and the Peace Dove. These designs existed here first, not yet as finished symbols within a larger body of work, but as part of the evolving visual language from which that body would emerge.

Bearing the marks and character of age, handling, and use, this piece is sold as-is, with no returns accepted. Please review all photographs carefully before acquiring.

Shipped fully insured with signature required upon delivery.

A little thin but very cozy and comfortable, soft fabric
Size: Large, Color: Navy
Thin but super soft and extremely comfortable. I would have liked the fabric to be a tad bit thicker, thus the four stars instead of 5. I wore this with a denim blazer. It is a beautiful navy. I think I will order a size larger than normal and maybe then the thinner fabric won't be such an issue. Nice sleeve length, not too clingy.

Fit Comfort and no high slits which spoil long dresses
Size: X-Large, Color: Dark Green
Why such high slits? Why 2 splits? Always have to sew them up for more coverage and modesty, especially when seated. The manufacturer/seller could appeal to more, and all ages of customers considering this dress purchase, if not for these too long slits either side.
