A Strigil. Well that’s something I haven’t heard of.
Let’s hope everyone had their own Personal Strigil. .

If not…. Eew!

I can see why you thought that Gloria. Look at it the other way round! You or Wendy are favourites for this.

A personal seal for use with sealing wax?
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Posted: 09 Feb 2025, 12:18
A seal yes Ian, but not for sealing wax. Clue.... my mother used it in the course of her domestic duties. It had a specific use. Another clue. LG was the initial of the name my father used.

For embossing a document, rather than sealing one?
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Posted: 10 Feb 2025, 03:20
Sorry but no. I shall knock it on the head because it's not very interesting.... It was a stamp that was part of a kit containing Indelible ink and it was for putting initials on handkerchiefs.
I can't imagine it ever getting used!
Next object anyone?
