Gift box
A linen-covered box with a brocade-lined lid and a satin tray. Inside the lid is a card with a test impression of your seal.
Seal paste
A porcelain pot of cinnabar-red seal paste, so you can use your seal as soon as it arrives.
Illustrations based on our sample set. Natural stone varies, so no two seals look exactly alike.

Back to the studioQuestions
Will the QR code scan from a stamped print?
A stamped print is harder to scan than a screen. We test-stamp every QR seal before it ships; if yours doesn’t scan reliably, we’ll tell you and offer the version without the QR code.
Can I change the design?
Yes. We email you a proof before carving starts and won’t carve until you approve it.
Can I return it?
Each seal is made just for you, so we can’t take returns — but if it arrives damaged or carved incorrectly, we’ll re-carve it free.
Is it a legal signature?
No. It’s a keepsake and a way to express yourself — not a legal signature or a company seal.
