Tie of Life
Among designs such as shippo, shokko, sayagata patters which are the traditional designs created by human hands,
only kikko pattern can be seen in the lotus pods, honey cones, hads of tsukushi, the field horsetail, and scouring rush, the world of nature.
Starting from the innocent babyhood, (battledore and a shuttlecock), the
time for academic discipline, (the books), burning our hearts by fragile love as cherry blossom, (letter), and marriage (shell box). You eventually strive for social success (treasures), encountering the enrichment of the life,
(rice plant and a noisemaker), various events, and living together until having gray hairs, (takasago), a bloom and a bamboo rake representating lifetime spouse.
All these life events are connected by Kikko pattern. The Tie of Life.
