A baby hair brush made from Ian's first haircut to wish him wisdom in future, and his umbilical cord sealed in a glazed crystal (liu2 li2 crystal) to wish him good health and wealth.
The umbilical cord is something that once connected Ian and me. It is now, together with a few strands of Ian's hair, sealed within the centre of the rat stamp. Interestingly, the umbilical cord stamp is also called the "wealth stamp". What makes this glazed crystal design special is that it does not flatten the umbilical cord like the other typical crystal stamps.
The baby hair brush is made of red sandalwood, and engraved with well wishes from us, our names and his lunar birth date. It has a hidden mini seal with Ian's chinese name, on the top of the brush.
