Hand-Carved Rakkan-in (Square Artist Chop)

From: ¥13,000

Rakkan-in are special square hanko for artists and calligraphers. Whether you sign with your given name, or pen name, or both, your Rakkan-in imbues your work with your artist spirit. Our Rakkan-in are hand-carved by a local artisan in Tokyo, and so even two seals with the same name are guaranteed to be different.

Our rakkan-in are carved from Qingtian stone, a quartz-like stone from the mountain city of the same name in central China, with a marbled look similar to soapstone. The stone has a naturally rounded, organic shape and complex pattern, and each one is completely unique in both color and shape.
