A seal/chop plays an important role in the composition of a painting or calligraphy. It does not serve merely as personal identity, but is an integral part of a work of art. It enriches the content of a work-just as dessert does dinner.
The design of the seal/chop can be compared to that of a miniature painting. Every tiny space must be thought out very carefully and every dot is crucial in the harmonious oneness of the design. (quoted from Chinese Brushwork in Calligraphy and Painting by Kwo Da-Wei; you can go to our Booklist link to purchase this book.)
If you are serious about your art, you want to invest on your seal/chops. We are confident that we offer great selections:
Professional - All your chop/seal/stone stamp will be hand carved by well-known artists in northwest U.S. and members of professional artists' associations in China. We treat every seal as a piece of art so our stamps look vivid, full of artistic energy and variation of brush stroke effects. Our artists will engrave their signature on the stone as the finishing touch.
Individualized - We help you to translate your name into Chinese and we will try to find the most meaningful character to match the sound of your name. You can also specify any special pattern, design or proverbs to be carved on the stone you choose.
