Please note that the patina on the wax seal charm has been through a oxidization process to give it a antique, vintage look. Each charm that has been though an oxidization process will vary slightly from another, no charm exactly the same as some might be a tad bit darker or lighter than others, and in different areas. Study the example photos above so you can get an idea of the variation.
