lead sealed
This might be application of a lead seal - the sort used by customs officials. This type of sealing is often called "piombato" in Italian

: categorically without "lead": in this context, "piombo" means simply "seal", not nessarily made from led. Paraphrasing a famous adage, "baby, lead is just a figure of speach" :)
