[Fujizakura Textile] Kikyo-nezumi (Bellflower Gray) Dragonfly Japanese Silk Jacquard Necktie

Japan, deriving its name from being a bountiful island, was known in ancient times as "Akitsushima," and the dragonfly, symbolizing a fruitful autumn, was called "Akitsu" in old Japanese.

Furthermore, because dragonflies can only fly forward, they were given the nickname "Kachimushi" (victory insect), imbued with the meaning of "continuing to advance until victory is achieved." They were carved as charms onto the armor of samurai warriors during the Sengoku period and have been cherished since ancient times. As a lucky charm bringing prosperity and victory, they continue to be immensely popular today.

Wearing this lucky symbol might bring you good fortune?! It is especially recommended when you want to take on a challenge with determination.

The same design is available in three colors: Kikyo-nezumi (purple), Koke-iro (green), and Nando (blue). Each tie features Japanese-inspired nuances in color, resulting in a tie imbued with profound Japanese spirit.
