Footnotes

漢代 銅穿戴印 一組三枚

These bronze seals carry inscriptions reading: Chen Guang, Wei Guang; Nan Chen Zhu, □ Zhu; Chen □ Guo and Qin □ Guo respectively. These wearable seals represent a distinct category within Han Dynasty seals. Typically compact and portable, they served both practical functions as credentials and carried rich social, identity, and cultural significance. They constitute vital material evidence for studying Han dynasty official systems, private seal practices, daily rituals, and metalworking techniques.

銅質,印文分別為:「臣廣」、「魏廣」 ;「難臣朱」、「□朱」; 「臣□國」,「秦□國」。穿戴印​​,是漢代印章中的一類特殊形制,通常體積小巧、便於攜帶或穿戴,既具有實用的憑信功能,也蘊含豐富的社會、身份與文化意涵,是研究漢代官制、私印制度、日常禮儀與金屬工藝的重要實物資料。
