💡 What is the "5-Yen Coin Turtle"?
In Japanese, the 5-yen coin is called "Go-en," which sounds exactly like the word for "good connections and relationships." To celebrate our 5th anniversary, we combined "5-yen (Go-en)" with the turtle—a Japanese symbol of good luck and longevity—to express our deep gratitude for all the wonderful connections made through our crafts! 🐢
