| Each of these signets, or stamps, bears the name of a tree. All these trees, pine, Bamboo, Plum, and Willow, are symbols of spirituality in Chinese culture. A related classic poem and a country scene are engraved below. In size 4" x 1" x 1", each is carved from cloudy yet translucent soapstone with a pleasant greenish tint. | |
