Cherry Blossom in Full Bloom
On lustrous porcelain, cherry trees bloom in full. Every petal and every leaf, and the shading of the branches, is drawn with a fine and refined brush.

“Beauty of the Heart”
Sakura is a special flower for the Japanese, who have found in it an exceptional beauty and long admired it. To say hanami — flower viewing — is generally to mean sakura. The language of the cherry blossom is “beauty of the heart,” and since ancient times the word “flower” has meant sakura.
