印鑑 is a Japanese word that refers to a personal stamp or seal used to authenticate documents. The word is composed of two kanji: 印 (in) meaning "impression" or "mark" and 鑑 (kan) meaning "mirror" or "reflection". The origin of the word dates back to the Nara period (710-794), when seals were used to authenticate official documents.
