Private Japanese Hanko Seal Making with an Artisan, Tokyo Nakano

Experience the rare blend of history and personalization at a 130-year-old traditional shop. Unlike mass-produced souvenirs, you will hand-carve your own "Hanko" seal—a symbol of identity in Japan—under the direct guidance of a master artisan. We began this workshop with a mission to preserve Japanese heritage and share the true essence of our culture with the world. We provide an interpreter to help you select meaningful Kanji for your name or something you like, ensuring a deep cultural connection. Finish by stamping your seal on your own brush calligraphy. This private workshop offers a unique piece of history you can use for a lifetime.
