“From imperial decrees to the simplest business transactions, the carved seal has been recognized for millennia as a binding form of identity in China. As seen here in color photos and printed impressions, they have taken an endless variety of forms, from simple ceramic blocks or cubes to elaborately carved animals and figures in jade and precious metals”.
