We designed a modern style that dyes the good motifs of the weaving with contemporary lifestyle colors.
The colors range from a green series in subdued tones,
to a warm orange series with two colors.
The falling colors blend harmoniously while maintaining individuality, adding elegance to your desk.
※ Since the sheets are cut from large paper rolls, there may be individual differences in the placement of the patterns. Please understand this in advance.

Wishes and prayers woven into traditional patterns
【Pine pattern】
The pine is a symbol of prosperity
The pine is a plant that Japanese people have long loved as a sacred symbol.
Even in the cold winter, it keeps its green leaves, symbolizing "longevity." Also, the pine, plum, and cherry blossom together in one branch represent the wish for "prosperity of descendants."
Since the Edo period, it has been regarded as a plant where gods dwell, painted on Noh stage backdrops or crafted as gate pines to welcome the New Year, becoming an indispensable presence in performing arts and celebrations.
The strong vitality and beauty of the pine are still loved by many people today.
