Featured Need help identifying signet stamp.. Chinese?

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

 

You're right, it is a Chinese seal. No great age, but I like the snake.
@Asian Fever can you read it, even though it is in reverse?

 

Now, which side is up?

 

That way is perfect, thanks Bronwen. Asian won't have to take a paracetamol to read it now.

 

Had to google paracetamol!

 

What is it called in the States?

 

What is ibuprofen and paracetamol used for?
Ibuprofen belongs to a group of medicines known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs work by reducing pain, reducing swelling and lowering high temperatures. Paracetamol is an analgesic which works in a different way from ibuprofen to relieve pain and fever.

 

Paracetamol is simply a painkiller, and not as bad for you as ibuprofen or aspirin. It is not as taxing on liver, kidneys or heart as ibuprofen and there is no risk of hemorraghes like with aspirin. Still best to be avoided, if possible.

 

acetaminophen Tylenol

 

Wow.
I'll have to practise saying that.
Or not.

 

My doctor told me that 80% of dialysis patients are there because of diabetes. The other 20% are there because of using NSAIDs like ibuprofen, naproxen (Aleve), and aspirin.

Seriously!??

Please stop spamming my thread!

Instead help me identify the mark under stamp seal.

Thanks!

 

It wasn't done on purpose.

 

莱 (Lai)



奥 (Ao)



特(Te) - specially?



拜 (Bai) - visit?

The last two words I guess means specially come to visit

The first two words are confusing.
1st possibility: they could possibly means a name.

2nd possibility: the first word could be a traditional hand writing of "来" - which means come, then the second word is 奥 (Ao), which is the first name of 奥地利 (Austria), then the who meaning could be specially come to visit austria.

Overall, I just guess

 

Pleasure.

 

These 4 characters are nothing but a western person's name being put in Chinese by similar pronunciation

 

hahahaha happens a LOT in this forum, and i now know never to take ibuprofen carelessly

 

as in Laiao Tebai or Laite Aobai??

 

I prefer Laiao Tebai with Laiao for Leo. Tebai for what western name?

 

Also the low quality of this item clearly tells it was made by a street artist in a tourist souvenir market, same as those street painters in New York city.

Those street Chinese carvers at that time often received poor school education and knew little English, so they just came up with any Chinese characters close to the western name pronounced by this western visitor.
