otterintheflightdeck:橙色 (Daidai-iro) | #EF810F | “Daidai”This native Japanese word for “orange” comes from an Asian variety of bitter orange, originally named 代々 (daidai, “several generations”) because its fruit stays on the tree for several years if not picked.Due to its association with longevity, the daidai is often used as a decoration for New Year celebrations. Kagami-mochi is a popular decoration consisting of two round rice cakes topped with a daidai.(Picture sources: 1, 2, 3 | More colors)Please check otterintheflightdeck’s interesting notes about japanese traditionnal colors here -- source link
