January 7th Color Calendar

Shizukane – Shizukane

"In the silence, a golden glow shines."

"Shizukan" is a gold color that has lost its brilliance.
It's not a bright, shiny color, but a soft, dull golden brown.
It is the color of a warm, lingering feeling that remains after the hustle and bustle of the New Year has died down.

This color represents "quiet blessing" and "emotional warmth."
In the morning, when we eat rice porridge with seven herbs,
The golden vessel quietly reflects the light.
At that moment, the blessing gently seeps into your heart.
