Impressive antique French silvered bronze figural wax seal depicting a dragon. Superb casted solid bronze figure, fully dimensional with impressive detail. Fascinating in form and beautifully modelled, the dragon is posed as though licking its claw while perched on the top of a pillar. The body is curled about in such a way to be visually appealing from every angle. Fine detail throughout, especially to the scales and claws, with exceptional features to the face. The matrix with monogram of interlaced initials RJ or JR. Measures 4 1/2" height, the matrix measures 3/4" x 3/4". In overall good antique condition with general wear to the silver gilt commensurate with age and use. There is some scuffing/notches to the edges of the matrix and to the top edge of the pillar accumulated over the years from use.
