{"product_id":"family-crests-of-japan-9781933330303","title":"Family Crests of Japan","description":"\u003cp\u003eBold, iconic designs have been used to symbolize family names in Japan from the time of the court nobles in the twelfth century. The sense of \"family\" has changed in modern Japan, but the crests' high-contrast motifs and simple geometries are right at home in our logo-emblazoned age, even as the designs express old cultural interests and ideals: cherry blossoms, well buckets, floating clouds. This book contains over 850 family crests \u003ci\u003e(kamon)\u003c\/i\u003e with descriptions, cultural backgrounds, and a selection of photographs showing how crests are used on banners, signs, and buildings. Of special interest to graphic designers, quilt-makers, and illustrators.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stone Bridge Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781933330303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 8.36w x 0.41d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2007 pg. 32\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Stone Bridge Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40494033600693,"sku":"9781933330303","price":16.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_6ac4632d-de88-49d7-ae48-9d4ee46bc782.jpg?v=1626157586","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/family-crests-of-japan-9781933330303","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
