Understand Japanese family crest designs with actual examples! A gorgeously visual guide to family crests.
In this book, we have selected more than 2,500 family crests and explain their designs and meanings. The crests are organized around the motifs of “plants,” “animals,” “natural phenomena,” “martial values,” “patterns and designs,” and “buildings and vessels.” In addition, this book is gorgeously illustrated with plenty of photographs and illustrated examples of motifs that make up family crests, along with dyeing works, handicrafts, and contemporary designs created in the image of family crests. This beautiful book can be used as a reference book for designs, tattoo motifs, illustration and more.
