Meyui

Meyui refers to a pattern dying technique. During the Edo period, this was known as Kako. A piece of cloth is tied with string and then dyed, which leaves a white pattern when the string is removed. Meyui refers to this white pattern, and can be anywhere from 1 to 16 patterns. Many in the Sasaki family use this emblem.

Fan paper

Fan paper refers to the special paper used to make fans. When a main family used the folding fan emblem, a branch family would often use the fan paper out of courtesy. Often seen in the Fukuoka prefecture.
