"Asanoha" Hemp Leaf Motif Items
Asanoha is a classic Japanese pattern that mimics the form of hemp leaves. Patterns involving hemp, a grass that grows quickly and straight, express wishes for the good health and growth of babies. In Japan, hemp has also been used since ancient times as a sacred plant in Shinto rituals.
This motif is ideal for baby shower gifts and suitable for children's tableware. It would also be suitable as a gift to celebrate a safe delivery. However, regardless of meaning, this minimalistic and contemporary pattern is also popular as an home decor pattern.
