, by Sarasvati Designs, 4 min reading time
At Sarasvati Designs, we believe that art should be lived with — not just admired on museum walls, but woven into the rhythm of daily life. Our Ohara Koson collection honors one of Japan’s most poetic printmakers. Koson’s masterful woodblock designs, spanning birds, blossoms, and seasonal landscapes, bring stillness, grace, and emotional depth to each item they touch.
