The National Seals of the Republic of China (Taiwan)

The Republic of China (Taiwan) has two national seals, the Seal of the Republic of China (Taiwan) and the Seal of Honor. Because they are made of precious, rare materials, and their faces are larger than ordinary seals, special care must be taken in using them to ensure that they will not be damaged and the color of the imprints will be even. To use the seals, they are placed face-up, then the faces are covered with cinnabar oil ink. The document is placed, face down, on the face of the seal, and then pressure is applied evenly on the back of the sheet. The whole process is something like making a rubbing.
