Robert the Bruce - Wax Seal Stamp – King of Scots and Champion of Scottish Independence - Great seal of the Realm

(Robert I, Robert de Brus, Roibert a Briuis, Raibeart Bruis, Robertus Brussius Rex Scotorum)

This wax seal stamp is based on the heraldic design historically associated with Robert I of Scotland (1274–1329), known to the world as Robert the Bruce – the warrior king whose name is forever tied to Scotland’s fight for independence from English rule.

Crowned King of Scots in 1306 during the height of Anglo-Scottish conflict, Robert the Bruce rose from noble rebellion to become a national hero. Despite early setbacks and excommunication, his perseverance and brilliant guerrilla tactics would culminate in a defining triumph at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314, where he decisively defeated the army of Edward II. This victory marked a turning point in the Wars of Scottish Independence and reaffirmed Scottish sovereignty.

Robert the Bruce's legacy goes far beyond the battlefield. He successfully consolidated his rule, forged strategic alliances, and laid the foundations for an independent Scottish monarchy. His reign ended with Scotland recognised as an independent kingdom by the Treaty of Edinburgh, Northampton in 1328, just a year before his death.

This wax seal features Robert with the iconic lion rampant, a powerful symbol of Scottish kingship, strength, and defiance, set within a shield that reflects the Bruce arms. A perfect tribute to a monarch forged in battle and revered in legend.

Whether you are a lover of medieval history, a proud Scot, or a collector of royal heraldry, this wax seal connects you to one of the most enduring figures in Britain’s medieval past.
