Derived from its name asa (hemp) and ha (leaf), this Japanese pattern draws inspiration from the hemp leaf’s structure – resembling six-pointed stars, the design signifies growth, strength, and durability, as hemp thrives even under harsh conditions. Traditionally used to adorn Buddhist statues during the Heian period (794-1185), the pattern gradually became popular among the common people, becoming a fashionable design for kimono during the Edo period (1603-1867). The significance of the hemp leaf also played into the asanoha design becoming the standard for baby clothesparents often made clothing for their children with asanoha in the hopes that their child would grow as quickly and as healthily as the hemp plant. Enduring in its popularity, the auspicious meaning behind this design makes items decorated with asanoha the perfect gift for expecting mothers or parents with small children.
