Published during the Meiji era, Bijutsukai and Shin Bijutsukai are treasured collections featuring exquisite designs by various pattern designers.

The cover features Bijutsukai (Wild Rabbits) nestled in a grassy meadow. Rabbits have been traditionally cherished as symbols of longevity and prosperity in Japan.
The back pocket features a design in a subtly different shade of yellow. Vertical stripes mimicking wood grain intertwine with Kasuri splashed patterns, while leaves and petals seem to dance across the surface.
