What country are those from?
I got these from an estate auction and the people there I was told traveled a lot into Asia, China etc. I am assuming these came from that region but am not 100% certain. The swastika (卐 or 卍) is an ancient religious and cultural symbol, predominantly in various Eurasian cultures. Here again I think one of the seal with that symbol may be "good luck" and the other I'm hoping may put a name to it. I've posted on other sites also and so far no luck in translation....

New clarifications - to read, the image of the seal must be mirrored.
So, a new reading of seal #2 - 卍(萬)古名山 Wan Gu Ming Shan - ("Ancient Famous Mountain" ???)
