Chinese Character "Ai"- Kabuto ornament of Naoe Kanetsugu

The pattern of this hanging scroll is originated from Kabuto ornament of Naoe Kanetsugu. Kanetsugu was a resourceful general and defended Uesugi clan after defeat of Sekigahara war with his motto "Justice" which was faith of Uesugi Kenshin.
Chinese letter "Ai" is surrounded by unique cloud pattern on the cloth. A single letter "Ai" means "love" in today, but probably the letter of this ornament was originated from the initial letter of Atago-gongen. Atago-gongen is god of war so carrying with the letter meant the god should protect him.
This item is hand perfected by artisan and the pattern has been cut out using Japanese traditional paper, and dyed skillfully by hand-work.
