Hanakomon (花個紋 - Birthday Flower Emblem)
A Personalized Blessing with a Unique Hanakomon Flower Emblem
Hanakomon (花個紋) is a unique flower emblem designed to represent each specific day of the year. Much like a birthday symbol, these motifs were created to celebrate memorable dates and bring daily blessings to the recipient. There are 366 distinct flower emblems in total—one for every day of the year, including February 29th.
In Japan, the deep appreciation for flowers stems from the ancient belief that a blooming flower represents good fortune, while a bountiful fruit tree symbolizes abundance. By incorporating Hanakomon into your Kangu, you are not just personalizing a product; you are infusing it with a story of growth and luck.
Whether you are celebrating your own birthday or commemorating a special anniversary for a loved one, a Hanakomon embellishment creates a truly one-of-a-kind Kangu to be cherished all year round.

Hanakomon - 花個紋
Create a truly personalized Kangu for yourself and your loved ones.
Behind the scenes
To begin printing, carefully position the screen on the fabric. Once the alignment of the Hanakomon motif is precise, load the wooden brush with ink and sweep it across the screen in one smooth, unbroken motion. A steady hand is essential—any pause mid-stroke can ruin the delicate transfer. Finally, gently lift the screen. Check for clean lines, and voilà—a flawless Hanakomon print is complete!
