Description
The chrysanthemum motif has been a popular choice in Japanese design for many centuries, dating back to the Heian period (794-1185) and continuing to be used in various applications, from everyday items to indoor decorations. There is a wide array of pattern compositions featuring chrysanthemums, including the wild chrysanthemum, chrysanthemum arabesque, chrysanthemum and water, Manju chrysanthemum, and chrysanthemum diamonds, among others.
Furthermore, chrysanthemums are often associated with the belief of promoting longevity and a prosperous life, making them not only artistically significant but also symbolically meaningful in Japanese culture.
