Mulberry Mon

[svarsh]

I found the mulberry leaf mon (kaji) on tsuba and actor's kimono. Would the members be kind enough to tell me what clan it belonged to and if there were any particular meanings of the symbol?

Thank you,s

Did not the Suwa Clan use this Mon? John

Hi Guys,

 

Paper Mulberry is known as Kajinoha

 

Here's the Kamon sometimes known as Suwa Kajinoha

It also comes in a maru ni (Contained within a circle) Form.

 

Here's a few takes on it:
