NOTE: “Hishi” pattern has been loved in Japan as a traditional design since ancient times. Its origins are said to be derived from the leaves and seeds of the water plant called “Hishi” (water chestnut). The “Hishi” plant easily proliferates, so the pattern carries the meanings of prosperity for descendants and well-being.
