Endoh crest

Sendai, Japan

Each family in Japan has a crest, or logo. Most are round, or appear inside a enclosing circle. Cemetary stones bear them modestly, finer homes have them etched into fogged glass windows greeting visitors and familial black kimonos proudly sport them over the left breast.
