| Geese are waterfowl that fly in formation known as a V-shaped “goose formation.” They migrate south from the north in autumn, overwinter, and return north in spring. They were cherished as symbols of family bonds and marital harmony. This menuki depicts a pair of flying geese, a motif known as “A-un.” Delicate chiseling adorns their wings, lending them an endearing charm. |
