These look to be a two of the Japanese Seven Lucky Gods, Daikoko (God of Wealth with hammer) and Ebisu (patron of fishermen), together being icons of plenty. Perhaps our Japanese experts can help you with the seal.

Best regards,

I'm going to have to get some idiot-proof spelling-check software one of these days. The God of Wealth's name should have been spelled "Daikoku", also rendered as Daikokuten".
