Now, imagine spring. Flowers blooming, the small, light green leaves of the blossoming cherry and plum trees filling in the gaps between the beautiful white, pink, and purple flower petals. Marigolds and willows popping up in between balance out this Japanese spring palette. The “Twelve Level Cap and Rank System” adopted in 603 defined rank based on the five Chinese elements passed onto Japan through the spread of Buddhism and language from the Asian continent. Based on wood, fire, earth, metal, and water, the ‘Cap and Rank System’ involved coloured caps, worn by ranked officials of the government and imperial court. Through this system important meaning was ingrained into each of the colours adopted in the system. For example, deep purple, the colour allowed only to the highest ranked officials, became attributed to unmatched virtue for its affiliation with elite nobility. Moving down the list, the virtue and ‘rank’ of each colour became increasingly linked to the job and responsibilities of those donning the cap.

White exclusively for mixing purpose. Translucent white pigment of Mixing White will make clear and pure colours when mixed with other colours.
