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.

Chrysanthemum

The chrysanthemum is used as an emblem for the imperial family, ever since the Emperor Go-Toba from the Kamakura period. In the 4th year of Meiji period, all non-royal use of the emblem was outlawed.
