About this item

   Deer and Bamboo in Harmony pattern is steeped in history, tracing back over 3,000 years to the early fishing and hunting era. Because deer are adept at running and exceptionally agile, our ancestors regarded them as "hunting deities" and frequently depicted their images on painted pottery and stone walls. Early depictions of the deer motif were characterized by exaggerated forms and robust physiques, later evolving into a more realistic and natural style.

The ancients viewed the deer as a benevolent creature associated with good fortune; legend even holds that it served as the mount for immortals, capable of bringing luck and wealth. During the feudal era, when the pursuit of power was highly prized, the deer also came to symbolize authority and nobility.
