Bortoletti Gothic letter wax seal stamps
The Bortoletti Gothic letter wax seal stamps collection features beautifully made interchangeable initials in a classic Gothic lettering style, available from A to Z. Designed for customers who appreciate historic letterforms and more decorative presentation, these 22 mm wax seal stamps offer a striking way to personalise stationery, invitations, packaging, and correspondence.
Distinctive Gothic initials
Gothic lettering is admired for its strong vertical forms, decorative detail, and historic character. This makes it an excellent choice for wax sealing, where a single initial can add drama, individuality, and a sense of old-world elegance. Whether used for wedding invitations, certificates, presentation envelopes, or luxury gift wrapping, Gothic letters create a bold and memorable impression.
Available in A to Z
This range includes all Gothic letters from A to Z, allowing you to choose the initial that best suits your name, project, brand, or recipient. The collection is ideal for personal stationery, bespoke gifts, monogrammed presentation, and decorative sealing across a wide variety of occasions.
Interchangeable and easy to use
Each stamp is designed with a simple screw-fit system that allows it to be attached easily to compatible Bortoletti wax seal handles. This interchangeable format makes it convenient to switch between initials while continuing to use the same handle, giving you greater flexibility and helping you build a personalised wax sealing collection over time.
Product dimensions and compatibility
Each Gothic letter wax seal stamp measures 22 mm in diameter, the standard size used across most of the Bortoletti wax sealing range. These stamps are fully compatible with Bortoletti wax seal handles, making them a practical choice for customers who already own a handle or wish to create a custom sealing set.
Enhance your wax seal impressions
For an even more decorative finish, the raised details of your wax seal can be highlighted using Bortoletti wax cream, available in pots of gold or silver. This is a simple way to bring out initials, symbols, and engraved details, adding extra contrast and a more luxurious finish to your completed seal.
Ideal for creative and formal use
These Gothic wax seal stamps are especially well suited to wedding stationery, luxury correspondence, themed invitations, decorative packaging, craft projects, and personalised gifts. Their ornate and historic style makes them particularly appealing when you want an initial that feels more expressive and decorative than a simple block letter.

Love these gothic letters to make my stamps with. Really easy to use.
Hi Trina,
Thank you for asking. Bortoletti recommends using 90% pure alcohol or denatured alcohol (Methylated spirits) for a stable, odourless flame that does not burn or discolour the wax.
The two best, least expensive fuels for the alcohol lamps are denatured ethanol (ethyl alcohol; grain alcohol), and methanol (methyl alcohol; wood alcohol; methylated spirit); both can be cheaply obtained at hardware stores or home-improvement centers.
What is the alternative to denatured alcohol for alcohol lamp?
Try using >99% isopropyl alcohol. It's the closest in structure and physical properties. Denatured alcohol is mostly ethanol with methanol mixed in so it can be sold for non-food use.
Please note that Calligraphy Arts does not sell this as it requires specialist posting, but it is freely available at many hardware and cosmetic accessory stores.
I hope that helps,
Jane
Hello Irene,
Thanks for asking. To seal a lid on a jar, you need to heat the end of the sealing wax with something like a kitchen lighter and carefully drip the melted wax over the area you want to seal. Then, while the wax is still warm, you can press your stamp.
