Like a "desert after dinner," the Chinese have been using seals for thousands of years as the finishing touch on their calligraphy and brush paintings. These seals feature the name of the artist, or "mode seal" seals to help balancing the composition. Traditionally you only need to get one high quality red seal ink to use with your name seal, which will last for a life time.
