About the Kincha 金茶 colorway
Kincha, a golden brown, is one of the many subtle earth tones (the so-called 'forty-eight browns') prized in Edo-period fashion.
About Hishi
Hishi is a lattice of slim diamonds (rhombi) derived from the leaf of the water caltrop.
The diamond is one of the oldest motifs in Japanese design, found on Jomon pottery and developed through the Heian aristocracy into many variants such as hanabishi (flower diamonds) and matsukawabishi. It often signalled noble status.
