They are placed in a press. The top face in each case appears to be steel and the bottom face copper. The press and seals are the work of Warrington & Co. Engravers, Carrick Street, W.0.

This seal is placed in a screw spring press, and consists of an upper and lower face similar to those in use since the 1880s, the upper face is steel and the lower face copper, worked on a brass ground. The press and seal is the work of J.S. & A.B. Wyon, 287 Regent St. London, W.
