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 Kikkou

Kikkou is a honeycomb of hexagons named for the shell of a tortoise, often filled with a small flower.

The hexagonal tortoise-shell pattern came from China and was used by the nobility from the Heian period, frequently combined with florals into variants like kikkou-hanabishi. It carried an air of formality and rank.
