Jade has been used as a health amulet since ancient times. If you attach a string, it becomes a strap. If you attach a necklace cord and wear it around your neck, you can use it as a personal health amulet. If you wish, we will attach either cord. This jade seal is a product developed by our store, so it is made by polishing each piece from the seal material, so the size and shape are slightly different. The engraving is a work of art carefully created by a skilled engraver after hand-drawing the seal script. Because it is impossible to create the exact same shape and design twice, it is also ideal as a bank seal. (Currently, most commercially available round seals are machine-engraved, so if you engrave the same font on a seal material of the same diameter, the seal face will be almost the same.) The seal script font is from around 2,300 years ago, the era of Qin Shi Huang in China, and is said to be the most beautiful font. Seal engraving is a work of art, so the design of the seal face involves techniques such as tapping in addition to carving, and the jaggedness and subtle chipping of the kanji and frame on the seal face are part of the design and are not defects. This feature has an excellent anti-counterfeiting effect, so it is often used as a bank seal. Please purchase after fully understanding the history and traditional techniques of seal engraving. ★For bank seals, book seals, pottery, calligraphy, painting, illustrated letters, etc.★ Size: Approximately 2.76cm * 1.16cm * 0.86cm
