Welcome to RAKUZENDO.
Established in 1899, over 118 years in business RAKUZENDO is from the 19 century.
I am Toh Hirasawa a Traditional Japanese name stamp craftsman.
I have been creating the Japanese hand carved name seals for over 36 years. My trade has been passed down to me from three generations, and now I am the forth generation to continue this art and craft which is an essential part of my culture and also Japanese Business. I have, to this day, made over 30,000 individual and unique name stamps as my business continues to grow.
My continued skills and craftsmanship, along with my awards and qualifications, are clearly recognized by the Minister of labor in the early years, and now by the Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare of Japan.
Throughout my professional working years I have made name stamps for Japanese individuals and a number of company and business related stamps.
Recently I am creating not only Japanese name stamps but also for a number of Chinese and Korean individuals along with
English.
I am able to make name stamps in all languages, and all designs that are given to me by my customers.
I am honored to create your original name stamp by hand.
The strength and power of having your original name stamp carved by hand is far greater than having a machine, or computer make it, as this is a very personal and special signature, stamp, and mark that represents you.
