　　Product introduction: Inkpad is a medium for conveying the art of seal carving. Its quality directly affects the expression of seal art. A high-quality inkpad produces vibrant yet deep colors with a three-dimensional effect, appearing lively. The handcrafted inkpad by Master Liu features a bright cinnabar red color, vivid and richly textured. It does not solidify in winter or bleed oil in summer, yielding a clear imprint that never fades. Moreover, even when soaked in boiling water or roasted over a flame, the imprint remains sharp and clear.

　　Product history: Xiling Seal Art Society is an academic group integrating painting, calligraphy, and seal engraving, named after its proximity to Xiling Bridge. Among the star-studded Xiling art scene, Xiling Seal Engraving Inkpad is one of its shining stars. Developed a century ago by Wu Yin, the founder of Xiling, it is revered alongside hand-rubbed Xiling seals as a treasured jewel of the seal engraving world. “Xiling Seal Engraving Inkpad” is handmade, with varieties including Super Cinnabar Inkpad, Super Golden Splendor Inkpad, Premium Pomegranate Flower Inkpad, Eight Treasures Fragrant Inkpad, and Supreme Tassel Inkpad. These inkpads boast bright colors, clear imprints, and fine textures, and have long been favored by numerous painters and calligraphers. Two years ago, another inkpad manufacturer from a different region took Xiling Seal Art Society to court in a dispute over the intellectual property rights of Xiling Inkpad, demonstrating the immense influence and charm of Xiling Seal Engraving Inkpad.
