About This Product
Bortoletti Antique Pink Sealing Wax Stick is a vegan-friendly extra-fine sealing wax in a soft vintage pink tone, ideal for wedding invitations, stationery and decorative sealing. This elegant shade is now available as the final remaining stock, making it a beautiful choice for limited or special projects.
Bortoletti Antique Pink Sealing Wax Stick
The Bortoletti Antique Pink Sealing Wax Stick is an extra-fine traditional sealing wax produced in Italy using a carefully refined formulation developed over many years of craftsmanship. Blending natural waxes, vegetable resins and finely ground pigments, it delivers smooth melting and beautifully detailed wax seal impressions.
Soft Vintage Antique Pink
Antique Pink offers a delicate, romantic tone inspired by classic European stationery. Its muted character makes it particularly suited to wedding invitations, handwritten correspondence and elegant gift presentation.
This colour represents the final remaining stock, making it ideal for limited edition stationery projects or special occasions requiring a unique finishing touch.
Traditional Extra-Fine Sealing Wax
Bortoletti sealing wax is created by blending mineral fillers and coloured pigments with natural wax while hot, before being poured into moulds to form the traditional stick shape. The result is a high-quality sealing wax that flows evenly and captures fine engraved detail with clarity.
Each stick measures approximately 13cm and produces around 18–20 wax seal impressions, depending on stamp size.
Clean Flow & Reliable Impressions
A good sealing wax should melt quickly without burning while remaining fluid long enough to allow accurate stamping. Once impressed, the wax cools within seconds, producing crisp and refined results suitable for both decorative and practical applications.
Vegan-Friendly Composition
This sealing wax is vegan friendly, made using vegetable resins and natural pigments while maintaining the traditional appearance expected from classic sealing wax.
Perfect For
- Wedding invitations and save-the-date cards
- Greeting cards and handwritten letters
- Gift wrapping and packaging
- Graduation or celebration invitations
- Decorative wax seal projects
How to Use
- Melt the wax using a flame, spoon or alcohol burner.
- Allow the wax to form a small pool.
- Press your seal stamp firmly into the wax.
- Wait approximately 20 seconds before lifting the stamp.
For an additional decorative finish, raised details can be highlighted using gold or silver sealing wax cream.
Elegant, gently nostalgic and increasingly rare, Bortoletti Antique Pink sealing wax adds a distinctive finishing touch to meaningful correspondence.

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.
Here is a video showing one method I found on YouTube:
