Aluminium or titanium. Carved in Japan.

Your name, composed as a seal.

Nothing is cut until you approve.

Where your seal works.

One name, four jobs. Every design we mark registration-ready meets the common ward rules — full name, 8–25 mm, an unbroken rim.

実印13.5–18 MM

Registered seal

Property, a loan, an inheritance — the seal your city office keeps on file.

銀行印12–15 MM

Bank seal

The account, and every form after. Kept apart from your registered seal.

認印10.5–13.5 MM

Everyday seal

Parcels, paperwork, the daily yes. Any script — simply yours.

代表者印18–24 MM

Corporate seal

Founding a company — filed at the Legal Affairs Bureau.

AND FOUR THINGS WE PROMISE

  • Ten years on the face.

    If it wears or chips, we re-carve it free.

  • Accepted, or re-carved.

    A ward refuses it, bring the slip — free.

  • Photographed before it ships.

    Your seal and its first impression, sent to you.

  • Never carved twice.

    A rack stamp shares its design with thousands — wards reject that. Yours is cut once.

Cut, finished and photographed in our workshop by [職人名] — the hands that sign your dispatch photo. Each seal is made once; we don’t run sales on custom work.

Eight seals come back in a few seconds, seeded so yours is never repeated. Pick one, choose aluminium or titanium, and approve the exact face before anything is cut.
