Information
Banded Hedges were a formal device within Japanese traditional gardens, they were often incorporated in Japanese Kakiemon, Imari and Blue and White designs, includes `The Three Friends of Winter` (Pine, Bamboo and Prunus). 18th Century European Porcelain versions of the Banded Hedge often appear to have been interpreted as wheat sheaves.
