Another creature for Librum Prodigiosum ! The Minogame, from Japanese mythology! This legendary turtle can have a tremendous life span- sometimes up to 10,000 years! The most famous one comes from the tale of Urashima Tarō!
“Hirume” collection feat. a minogame (old turtle with seaweed growing on its back) sukajan vest, and modern take on zori shoes
Sukajan - or souvenir jackets - appeared after WWII when parachutes were used to tailor bomber jacket american soldiers brought back in the US. First mainly decorated with military motifs, they started to be embroidered with japanese patterns.In the 60′s, sukajan were worn by bad boys but in the last decade, it has come back into mainstream fashion.
Minogame
Behold, a minogame: the mythical turtle that no one asked for, but that everyone needs. The minogame is a giant mythological turtle that makes many appearances in Japanese art, design and culture. The creature is said to have lived at least 1,000 years, and have a long tail made from seaweed and algae accumulated from many years leaving under the sea. In Japanese culture, the minogame represents longevity, wisdom and good fortune. This figure of a minogame is actually a menuki, a decorative ornament that was woven under the handle wrapping of a sword.
