Collection: The Rainbow Collection - Niji

In Japanese mythology, the Floating Bridge of Heaven may have been inspired by the rainbow. The creator deities Izanami and Izanagi stood upon this bridge as they brought the Japanese archipelago into existence.

niji – 虹 (にじ): a noun meaning ‘rainbow’ in Japanese. This word can also work as a plural noun. The left part of this kanji expresses a snake; the right part expresses a line between the sky and the ground. This kanji concept is a good metaphor for a rainbow. When we want to say “rainbow” in Japanese, this word is the best choice.

niji ga deru – 虹が出る (にじがでる): a Japanese expression for ‘a rainbow appears’.

 

This collection reflects the beautiful colours of the rainbow and a perfect partner for Pride - Be the Rainbow.
