This print is one of the most recognizable patterns, the traditional seigaiha pattern first appeared in Japan in the 6th century after Japanese cartographers imitated it from ancient Chinese maps. Both cultures used the pattern of repeating semi-circles to represent bodies of water on maps, hence the wave-like shape of the design. Over the centuries, seigaiha has become an iconic Japanese pattern not just associated with historical Japanese textile art, but is now also seen in art, clothing, tableware, and more.
