Antique Wax Seal Press on Spanish Reef at Night

by Dakota Charles

Moonlight falls through exceptionally clear water, illuminating an antique wax seal press resting on the sandy edge of a cold-water reef off the Spanish coast. The brass die features a detailed heraldic crest, its metallic surface catching the pale blue glow of the deep night sky above. Layers of depth recede into the distance where the reef drops off into darkness. Slow-moving surface ripples distort the light into shifting patterns across the metal and the surrounding seabed. Late spring temperatures keep the water still, allowing the intricate scrollwork of the crest to stand out against the muted tones of the underwater landscape. A faint reflection of the crest appears on the smooth sand beneath the heavy press.
