Against a background of vermilion seigaiha waves, which signify happiness arriving without end, a magnificent golden hawk is in flight.
The Hawk, a Symbol of AscentBecause the hawk soars high into the sky, it is a symbol of the great leap forward, and it also carries the sense of rising fortune.
Vermilion and Gold, as on ArmourThe combination of vermilion and gold, which conveys dignity, has often been seen in the arms and armour of old Japan — in body armour and helmets.
