Seals are cultural microcosms – where materials, carvings, and calligraphy whisper stories across centuries. A dazzling China-Japan seal exhibition in Hangzhou proves this, showcasing 300 masterpieces that spark a dialogue between ancient craftsmanship and modern artistry.  

Now in its third edition, this jade-and-stone seal exchange has blossomed into a vital artistic bridge.  Celebrated for its scholarly rigor and exquisite craftsmanship, the exhibition draws global acclaim. This year’s curation traces the evolution of seal art—from knob carving to cutting-edge techniques—blending academic depth with visual splendor.  

Launched in Japan on May 23 with 200+ artists and scholars, the exhibition now enchants Hangzhou until end of June. Step inside, and time collapses: delicate Ming dynasty motifs converse with bold contemporary engravings, each seal a testament to culture’s enduring pulse. Don’t miss this journey through ink, stone, and legacy.
