Round impression of a seal: in a round cartouche entwined with two palm branches is the Topór coat of arms with a jewel above a rank crown.

Maker: Józef Kanty Ossolinski., The image shows a close-up of textured, aged paper with an embossed circular seal featuring a central shield-like emblem topped by a decorative crown and flanked by ornamental flourishes; the paper has visible creases and folds and a rough fibrous surface. There is handwritten ink near the top in a dark brown color, and the paper itself is a warm beige to light tan with subtle darker brown shadows in the embossed and creased areas.
