This is the private seal of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The private printing of the names of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, where the names are in two characters, is mainly used as the printed text, and the printed surface is left and right layout. The left and right layout of the name with three characters is also common. If the person with three characters wants to make the printing surface appear as a field layout, he often adds the word “seal”. The word “private seal” or “Zhiyin” is often used as a supplement to the two-character seal, but it is mostly used for copper casting private seal. It is rare for the seal to be so thin, beautiful and precise, which is enough to show the superb jade carving technology in the Han Dynasty.
