Seal cutting Ⅰ Japanese calligraphy



It is called "rakkann" to seal with a signature of the calligraphy.
It is called "tennkoku" to make the seal (seal cutting).




Tennkoku is established as the world of the art which a calligraphy and a sculpture connected. I make it with oneself.




As for this stone, tennkoku is for exclusive use.
There are various kinds and scales.

As for the most famous seal, it was sealed calligraphy of Wang Xizhi.

    Entré a algunos enlaces que pusiste en el texto para saber más. Ahí ví que no solamente usaban piedras para los sellos sino también maderas y huesos de animales, excelente post, Ruma.
    Un abrazo.
