Akae Pomegranate Design The "pomegranate" blooms in early summer with lush green foliage, and its red flowers are particularly eye-catching. It is considered an auspicious plant, believed to bring the blessing of children due to its many seeds. The pomegranate flower and fruit, which are also the origin of the phrase "a touch of red" (representing a woman), are gently depicted on white porcelain using the sometsuke (underglaze blue) and nishiki-e (polychrome) techniques.
