Kanko-dori, meaning a cockerel perched atop a barrel drum, is a symbol of peace under a good ruler. It is based on a Chinese story; such drums were traditionally used in ancient China to warn the approach of enemy forces. However, in peace times they were not used and birds roosted upon the moss-gathered drums.

Tosa Kashiwa (Three Oak Leaves within a Circle) is a traditional Japanese family crest (kamon) featuring three stylized oak leaves arranged in a radial pattern, enclosed within a circle. The oak leaf, or kashiwa, symbolizes endurance, strength, and continuity, as oak trees retain their leaves through winter. This mon is most famously associated with the Matsudaira and Kashiwabara clans and is closely linked to the powerful Tokugawa family, who ruled Japan during the Edo period.
