The pairing of Okame (a woman) and Hyottoko (a man) is a symbol of ‘the happiness of a family’ in Japan. They are legendary characters of old Japanese theatre. Their unique expressions always draw laughter from people, which is applied to the phrase ‘Fortune comes in by a merry gate.’

Furoshiki is quite popular for home decor! Use it as a tapestry, table accent, bento or gift wrap, or even to carry a wine or sake bottle.

Cochae is a graphic design group run by Yousuke Jikuhara and Miki Takeda, who aim to produce designs with a playful mind. They also design toys and hold workshops in museums.
