I tried to read the seal script.
The first character seems to be a double 又 but I didn't found the matching character, the second is for sure the character 枝 and the third begins with the radical 車 but I'm uncertain which character it is in the end. Frustrating. A blow-up image of the seal could bring some answer.
BTW: a recommended reference book for deciphering seal scripts is "Pictorial Chinese-Japanese characters: a new and fascinating method to learn ideographs", by Oreste Vaccari and Enko Elisa Vaccari.
