They used sealing wax and a seal. The Seal could have the owners Coat of Arms on it, You could go to Office supply store in your home town and order a Seal, maybe with Your initials entwined on it. When I was a co president of a non profit organization, I ordered a seal with our logo on it. Cost about 46 dollars though. You heat the wax, drop a dollop on the envelope and then press the seal into the wax.

It is called simply a seal and they used wax. Sometimes they used a ring to make the seal. You should try an antique store or do a search on the Internet. You could also make your own seal and probably pay a lot less to have one made. Something like a small rubber stamp, glued to the end of a stick should work very well. Good luck.

Just so you're aware, it's great fun for sealing letters, adds a personal touch, but the wax system very rarely makes it through the postal system intact. Seems only functional if you're handing over the letters yourself.

the stick is wax, and after being dripped on the paper it is pressed with the seal.
Hallmark stores used to sell them.
