About this listed panel

Kumiko is a Japanese woodwork technique that goes back to the 8th century. Having developed over a long period of time, kumiko refers to a sophisticated technique of grooving slit wooden pieces and arranging them in geometric patterns without nails as a form of wooden lattice decoration.
Each piece is assembled by hand with an accuracy of 0.1mm. Despite its delicate design, you’ll be surprised with the durability and longevity of kumiko wood panels. Made only by the best, award-winning artisans in Japan.
Formed from diamond shapes arranged in three tiers, the design refers to a wish for the prosperity, long life and health of our descendants, so is widely used at wedding ceremonies and in hotels.

The meaning behind the pattern

A wish for flourishing descendants.

THE STORY BEHIND THE PATTERN

Pattern meaning & origin

Sanjyubishi consists of three layers of diamond-shaped hishi motifs. The diamond shape derives from the water chestnut, a plant known for its vigorous growth and reproduction. It has therefore come to symbolise fertility, the flourishing of descendants, health and protection from illness. Its balanced geometry and auspicious meaning have made it a popular traditional motif for ceremonial and hospitality spaces.
