Grundriss der Eisenhüttenkunde, vorzüglich in Beziehung auf Erzeugung des Roh- und Schmiede-Eisens : in zwei Theilen
Grundriss der Eisenhüttenkunde is a German treatise on iron smelting by J. J. Fr. Wähler, published in 1806 and held by the Eisenbibliothek Schlatt, written for ironworks practitioners and metallurgy students. Its single picture is a red wax seal impression, an oval matrix showing a standing crowned figure holding an object, ringed by an inscription in old lettering, with no direct link to smelting. A designer might take its oval outline, rich red tone and hand-carved inscription border as a motif for a heraldic or vintage emblem.
