Hey /his/ I have this old wax seal and would like to use it but I have no idea what it says. Is there anyone here who can translate it for me? Googles translations are quite... unintelligible.
Pic related.
The base as well.
/int/ might be able to help you more than /his/

Looks Japanese. Would help a bit if first pic wasn't so blurry. The second pic you posted is also upside down.

Looks like a Japanese name, Nishioku

How can you tell the difference between hanzi and kanji?
>>1125070
There seems to be some hiragana (like ゐ for example) there as well.

I'm not too familiar with Japanese, but there are some definite Chinese characters in there, like 有, which means have.

Use this to verify that if it actually is chinese by just writing the characters in
>>1124480
It's upside down. 西奥
西 - West/Spain
奥 - inside
It might mean different things altogether.
>>1124477
It says you're a faggot

Chink detected, it's obviously Japanese characters, idiot.
>>1126030
Nigga that's straight Chinese 草書
>>1126030
Because apparently a chink is somehow unqualified to tell the fucking difference between Chinese and Japanese.
Do you even know what Japanese characters look like, idiot?
OP here,
Here's a more in focus image of the front of the seal.
龍
聰/聪 明(?) 才 智
? ? 人 品 ? 有
有 神 ? ? 人 ?

龍 dragon
聰明才智 Intelligence and wisdom
Other words are too ugly to read
龍 (Dragon)
有神象動人物 (There is image of the deities which makes a person moving.)
風訊人品言有(Wind asks dignity of the person. To be said there is)
聰明才智(clever and intelligence)
西奧(Xī ào, transliteration of English personal name "Theo" probably)
