Features: Seal carving is a unique art in China. It primarily uses seal script from Chinese characters as its material and engraving as its technique to create works within a small space. Seal carving works—seals—possess both ornamental and practical value. Whether in daily life or in the creation of calligraphy and painting, their brilliance is evident everywhere, making them deeply loved by people. Since ancient times, scholars, officials, and commoners alike have taken pride in owning a fine seal. To make it easier for seal carving enthusiasts to understand the full scope of ancient seals and improve their artistic skills, we have compiled the Comprehensive Dictionary of Ancient Chinese Seals. The book includes over 10,688 seals, ranging from the Shang Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty. It features major seals from each era before the Ming Dynasty and representative works of renowned seal carvers from the Ming and Qing dynasties.
