My gift from Ming and Stanley Lien

May I introduce Ming and Stanley Lien, from Taiwan. I taught Ming to paint on porcelain many years ago here in Tauranga where her family were residing, and as they now reside permanently back in Taiwan Ming has begun to teach also. She has many students, and you can see some of her work on http://www.porcelainpainting.org/

The gift of a seal stamper is marked with "Katies Porcelain Studio", Tauranga, New Zealand and is for using on certificates which I present to students when they have completed a special series of teaching.
The shape of the seal stamper is a Merlion, and because it is very heavy makes a very clear seal.
