The family crests that only exist in Japan. Do you know your own family crest?
A family crest, known as "kamon," is a symbol that has been used since around the Heian period to represent one's lineage (family, bloodline, status). In an era when literacy was low, family crests, which could be easily recognized at a glance even if one could not read the family name, were widely incorporated into daily life, appearing on clothing, furnishings, gates, and graves as a substitute for surnames. Currently, it is said that there are 241 types and over 5,116 family crests in Japan, with almost every household having at least one. The designs of family crests include flowers, plants, animals, celestial bodies, geography, weather, furnishings, weapons, letters, and geometric patterns, making them enjoyable to look at.

Company information
When you see the appearance of temples and townhouses in the capital, many people may be drawn to the beauty of the tiled roofs. Tiles, which were introduced to Japan during the Asuka period, were used for a long time as precious materials only in limited places such as temples and castles. During such times, the unique gloss of "Kyoto tiles" was achieved by using clay sourced from the area around Higashiyama and polishing it before firing. Primarily used for the main roofs of temples, during the Edo period, a simplified version of the traditional roof tile system was devised, leading to its spread to private homes. This replaced thatched and wooden roofs with tiled roofs, and Kyoto became renowned as a national production area for tiles. Among the various production areas across the country, "Kyoto tiles," known for their heavy and elegant impression, have been regarded as high-quality products in terms of quality, color, and luster since ancient times. Asada Tile Factory continues to focus on handmade production that requires skilled techniques, and it has now become the only factory manufacturing "Kyoto tiles." We will continue to cherish traditional techniques and the culture of Kyoto, delivering products that live up to the name "Kyoto tiles." Asada Tile Factory Shopping Site [KyotoTiles.com]
