Victorian “All For The Best” Seal Watch Key Fob
This early Victorian fob does double duty as a watch-winding key and a wax seal fob. The seal is made of bloodstone and features an intaglio of the words "All For The Best" within a garter surrounding the initials "LD" rendered in gothic script. A beautiful and cleverly designed object crafted for utilitarian (at the the time it was made, c. 1840) purposes.
