What is sealing wax used for?

Sealing wax is used to close and decorate letters, invitations, envelopes, and gifts with a pressed wax impression. It adds a timeless, handcrafted finishing touch and has been a hallmark of meaningful correspondence for centuries.

What type of sealing wax is best for mailing?

For letters you plan to mail, a flexible sealing wax is best because it’s far less likely to crack in transit than traditional brittle wax. Our sealing wax is formulated to hold fine detail while staying durable enough for everyday correspondence.

What color sealing wax is most popular for wedding invitations?

Deep, saturated colors tend to be the most popular for wedding invitations because they photograph beautifully and hold detail. Burgundy, navy, forest green, and antique gold are perennial favorites. Softer tones like blush, dusty rose, and cream are rising quickly with brides who want a more romantic, editorial look. Browse our full range of sealing wax colors to find the one that matches your invitation suite.

Can you use sealing wax on modern envelopes?

Yes, sealing wax works beautifully on modern envelopes, including standard paper envelopes and specialty stocks like linen and cotton. For envelopes you plan to mail, we recommend a flexible sealing wax so the seal doesn’t crack in transit. Ours is formulated to hold detail while staying durable enough for everyday correspondence.
