School of seal cutting from ancient times to the present

There are several prosperous periods of seal cutting, one is pre-Qin.

Qin and Han dynasties. At that time, it was usually copper seal. There are two printing methods of seals: casting printing and chiseling printing (except jade printing and grinding printing). At that time, because of material constraints, people who managed printing were generally craftsmen, and the upper class could not talk about it. However, due to the simplicity and elegance of seal cutting in Qin and Han dynasties, it is respected as the golden rule by future generations, and seal cutting will live in Qin and Han dynasties.

Wang Mian was sealed with stalactites in Yuan Dynasty. Later, Wen Peng of the Ming Dynasty bought a load of light frozen stone from Qingtian, and found that it could cure seals, which created the fashion of literati curing seals. Since then, famous seal engravers have come forth in large numbers, and some schools are listed as follows.
