    The #1 - #5 works are decorated with five types of Japanese Kissho Monnyou (Seigaiha, Asanoha, Shippo, Kikko and Sayagata).
    Kissho Monnyou (Auspicious Pattern): The word "Kissho" means a good omen or a happy sign. The Kissho Monnyou is a design depicting animals, plants, or objects that are considered auspicious. People have expressed these wishes, such as affluence, longevity, and happiness, in the patterns of crafts by entrusting them to things that are deeply connected to life or imaginary things.
    Each pattern has its own meaning and wish.
    #1:Seigaiha (A pattern of waves in blue ocean): Like the everlasting wave, may people's peaceful life continue forever.
    #2:Asanoha (Hemp leaves): May your children grow up healthy (from the fact that hemp grows quickly).
    #3:Shippo (Seven treasures): Enrichment, harmony, and karma (from the chain of connected circles).
    #4:Kikko (Tortoise shell): Derived from the turtle, a symbol of longevity.
    #5:Sayagata (A pattern of interlocking swastikas): A series of swastikas. It is used for family prosperity, longevity, etc.
    Tin is a soft and warm metal. The surface is hand-finished. The back surface has been intentionally made rough so that it will not slip on the table. The gentle luster of tin and the auspicious design will add a touch of color to your dining table.These works are recommended not only for everyday use but also for casual gifts.
