Basic Profile

 Coat of Arms

1. The Chrysanthemum flower is a symbol of Japanese Royal

Highness, the Emperor and his family. Only they can use the
Seal and the royal order or decree is called the
“Chrysanthemum Order”. The Chrysanthemum Seal is called
“Kikumon” in Japanese. The Imperial Chrysanthemum Seal
generally has 16 petals which represent the authority of
the Emperor and it is present on the badges of every Diet
(Parliament) member and also on Japanese passports.

2. However, the 14 petal Chrysanthemum Seal is used by the

other members of the Royal Family. We all know that Japan
has the longest serving Monarchy in the world much like the
British Royal Family and Thai Royal Family.

The 5-7 Paulownia (五七桐 go-shichi (no) kiri) is used as the official
emblem of the Prime Minister of Japan. It resembles a stylized
paulownia with 5-7-5 flowers.
Before the Chrysanthemum Seal was used extensively, the Paulownia Seal
originally was the private symbol of the Japanese Imperial Family,
from as early as the twelfth century. The Toyotomi clan, led by
Toyotomi Hideyoshi, later adopted the Paulownia Seal for use as the
crest of his clan. After the Meiji Restoration, the seal was
eventually adopted as the emblem of the Japanese government.
It is now still mainly used by the Japanese government, as a contrast
to the Chrysanthemum Seal which represents the Emperor as the symbol
of the sovereignty of the State, and members of the Imperial Family.

The 5-7 Paulownia (五七桐 go-shichi (no) kiri) has been used by those
in power and is the official emblem of the Prime Minister of Japan
today.
