Vintage jeweler’s engraving and stone-setting accessory lot consisting of a pitch block with black jeweler’s pitch mounted on a wood base and two wooden wax applicator handles.
This type of setup was traditionally used by jewelers, engravers, and metalsmiths to secure small workpieces during engraving, chasing, repoussé, stone setting, and other precision bench work.
Includes:
* Wood base with hardened black jeweler’s pitch
* Two wooden wax applicator handles
* One with brass ferrule
* One turned hardwood handle
* Red sealing wax remains on the ends of both handles from prior use
The pitch and wax are being sold in their current condition. Due to age, the pitch has surface wear and the wax shows signs of previous use. The wood base and handles have scratches, dings, and normal shop wear consistent with years of use.
Approximate size of wood base:
* 4” x 4”
