How to buy a hanko:


1. Choose whether you want a round or square hanko.

The official type used in Japan is the round one. We recommend the round type, which is the most popular choice among Japanese people. However, if you are using it for hobbies such as calligraphy or painting, choose the square type.

    Why Titanium HANKO (stamps) Are Considered Auspicious

    Titanium HANKO (stamps) are considered highly auspicious due to the inherent properties of the material. In modern times, their practicality and symbolic significance are particularly valued.

    Titanium is a metal with exceptional characteristics, used in industries like aerospace and medicine. These properties are deeply intertwined with the auspicious meanings associated with stamps made from it.

    1. Overwhelming Durability and Immutability

    Titanium boasts extremely high durability, resisting rust and degradation. This is believed to symbolize "everlasting prosperity," "unwavering success," and "the solidity of relationships." It's a fitting material for a stamp that represents long-lasting commitments, whether in business contracts or family ties. It carries the wish that any luck or success gained will remain constant forever.

    2. Strength and Stability

    Titanium is an incredibly strong metal, offering high resistance to external forces. This strength symbolizes "the power to overcome difficulties," "mental resilience," and "a stable foundation." It imbues the owner with the wish that they can build a stable life and business, no matter the adversity.

    3. Cleanliness and Purity

    Titanium is a highly biocompatible material that rarely causes metal allergies, giving it a very clean image. This symbolizes "pure relationships," "honest transactions," and "sincere intentions." It suggests that there's no room for deceit or impurity, making it an auspicious item for those who wish to walk a fair and clean path.

    4. Reliability as a Cutting-Edge Material

    Titanium is widely used in advanced technological fields, indicating its high reliability. This symbolizes "being at the forefront of the times," "continuous evolution," and "a certain future." For those seeking new challenges or innovative ideas, it's considered auspicious as a stamp that grants the power to forge ahead into the future.

    5. Down-to-Earth, Steady Prosperity

    The substantial feel and stability of titanium evoke down-to-earth, steady prosperity. It suggests that reliable effort and trust, built up steadily rather than ostentatiously, will eventually bear great fruit.

    For these reasons, a titanium HANKO is considered a very auspicious choice for those seeking lasting success, stability, and unwavering reliability.
