Hand-carving experience of a stone stamp (pocket mark _ rakkan).

Eight kinds of kanji were prepared specially for this event.
Please choose your favorite kanji from among them and actually carve it.
Even if you are the first person, the craftsman will teach you carefully, so it's safe even if you don't have confidence in the details.
Of course, you will be required to take home the sculpted articles.
Articles are used exclusively for letters, seals, etc. in various situations.
Please feel free to use Japanese writing while adding to the color of your writing while enjoying the Japanese culture.
