    Pretty cool piece... I think it is a stamp for artwork but don't know. Does anyone know what it says?
    (Or the age?)
    Thank you for viewing!

      Hi Laural.....It's a personal Chinese ink stamp or "chop mark" or seal. The symbol is someone or something's name. Not sure of the translation, but I can try to find out. It could also be wishes for health, prosperity,longevity,good fortune etc. Probably not very old, but still an interesting piece -Mike-
