Wishes and prayers incorporated in the plum pattern
Plum for health and disaster prevention
A pitiful flower that blooms in the cold wind with frost and snow. Along with its faint sweet fragrance, it also heralds the early arrival of spring.
The calm winter landscape colors of red, pink, and white azalea-like brilliance make you feel the breath of life.
Many ancient songs that remain in Japan's oldest anthology "Manyoshu" used the "plum" as a theme, enchanting people since ancient times.
Speaking of plum as a talisman, it is the tea "Daifuku-cha" made by soaking dried plum and kombu kelp.
Its origin is that Emperor Murakami drank it when he was ill during the Heian period and recovered.
It became customary to drink it while wishing for a year free from illness and disasters.
The colors are warm red tones,
Two-color pop-style display of bright yellow series. While the colors fall well together, each has its own personality, making it ideal as an item that brightens up your desk.
※ There are individual differences in the placement of the patterns due to the cutting of large sheets. Please understand this in advance.
