Chinese seal culture, with its unique charm, has deeply attracted cultural and art enthusiasts around the world. In China, seal engraving, along with calligraphy, painting, and poetry, is named as one of the four traditional Chinese arts.
The interpretation of the Chinese character "印" (Seal) is quite interesting. On the left side of this character is a "爪", symbolizing hand, while on the right, "节" stands for a certificate—dating back to ancient times, humans have been using seals to validate the ownership of documents or properties.
Chinese seal culture encompasses a range of elements, including the form, the script, the carving, the material, and the seal paste. Seals can be used for appreciation, decoration, and artistic expression, interpreting the unique taste and personality of their owner. This culture, with thousands of years of history in China, holds a significant position both in ancient times and today.
Engraving a seal is a delicate process that demands skilled craftsmanship. Engravers, through their professional skills, inscribe names or mottoes into seals. Such seals carry not just practical importance, such as document authentication, but also hold decorative and artistic value.
