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.
The “Rindo” expresses the virtues of love, sincerity, justice and tolerance. As a digestive medicine is made from its roots, the flower is popular as a symbol of longevity. You can easily assemble multiple panels to a larger size.

THE STORY BEHIND THE PATTERN

Pattern meaning & origin

Rindo, or Japanese gentian, is known for its upright growth and flowers that bloom individually rather than in dense clusters. It has traditionally been associated with sincerity, integrity, compassion and strength of character. Its roots were also used in traditional medicine, while its deep purple colour has given the flower associations with dignity and longevity. Rindō is therefore particularly valued as a symbol of respect and long life.
