Chinese seal carving is a unique engraving art that uses stone as the main material, chisels as tools, and Chinese characters as the representation. It has developed from the seal making skills of ancient China and has a history of more than 3,000 years. It emphasizes the brushwork and structure of Chinese calligraphy, and highlights the free and unrestrained artistic expression in engraving. It displays skills and expresses emotions in a small space, and is deeply loved by Chinese literati and ordinary people. Seal carving works can be appreciated independently, and can also be widely used in fields such as calligraphy and painting.
