The sense of \"family\" has changed in modern Japan, but the crests' high-contrast motifs and simple geometries are right at home in our logo-emblazoned age, even as the designs express old cultural interests and ideals: cherry blossoms, well buckets, floating clouds. This book contains over 850 family crests (kamon) with descriptions, cultural backgrounds, and a selection of photographs showing how crests are used on banners, signs, and buildings. Of special interest to graphic designers, quilt-makers, and illustrators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eItem# 9781933330303\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAuthorized Dealer\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stone Bridge Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49425244848422,"sku":"9781933330303","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0128\/7762\/7456\/files\/963d0cc4-ca06-5cc6-b5b6-4cd632fe01d2.jpg?v=1724607121","url":"https:\/\/retrostar-gifts.myshopify.com\/products\/family-crests-of-japan-stone-bridge-press","provider":"Retrostar Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
