Matuba shop the third Kamonmaker Mr. Tumao Awasaka saw a coat of arms notebook,
and grew up so that a picture book might change.
It is talking in "the story of the family crest".
A picture mentor is the taken work of drawing the coat of arms introduced
to each house in the Montuki (Japanese ceremonial dress.)
It becomes a coat of arms notebook with the thing of the crest collection
which an upper picture mentor uses and which is made precisely from 2000-3000
collection.
There is a standard for a choice in the coat of arms, and it is being written
to know its Japanese feeling well when it is known.
An animal such as the lion. snake. eagle which threatens the person who
sees it in the West and a fish aren't being used at all.
It seems that it was extremely careful for the choice of that material.

pattern of small animal. amusement.
【A Japanese family crest total example.】

crest which worried the people.
A red bird is to take dirt.
It was the toilet set to take the dirt attached to the comb.
The user of the coat of arms hates the letter of the dirt, and it seems
that he was changed to the red bird.
