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.

Cloves are originally from the Maluku Islands. They also have a long history in Japan, and are even contained in the Shosoin treasure house. The emblem represents the bud.
