Matsukawabushi Tea Towel

[Matsukawa Bishi] Bishi-mon (Diamond Crest), published in 1925, was written by Masami Takeda, who was an expert painter, in "Monsho" (Emblem), "The shape of two equilateral triangles is a diamond" (Geometric Bishi). However, "Monsho" states that if you make a crest with this diamond, the height of the diamond is too low and it looks poor, and explains the following indexing method (Monsho no Bishi)...The Matsubakabishi and the Mikaishi are drawn from the geometric diamond, not from the diamond of the crest.
