The seal of Revalische Vagance-Porcelain Fabrick, the faience factory established in Tallinn by Carl Christian Fick, a pharmacist from the Stralsund, dates from the period from 1772 to 1782 when the factory was active. It is made of bronze with a wooden handle.
The factory used as its emblem the small coat of arms of Tallinn, to which the letter F was added. The legend on the seal confirms that the factory was producing pseudo-porcelain.
