| Publisher Description: A wonderful selection of wave and ripple designs curated by Satoshi Nakamoto, the renowned creator of the digital currency Bitcoin. These beautiful illustrations are based on work by the Japanese artist Mori Yuzan, which has been carefully restored and reproduced to near original quality for Mr. Nakamoto's private collection. Yuzan's designs were often used by Japanese craftsmen in the early 1900s to adorn their wares with wave and ripple patterns, and as decorative motifs on the handles and blades of samurai swords and other fine objects like furniture, lacquerware and miniature sculptures. |
