This device is returned for running afoul of SENA A that states "The armorial elements, charge groups, and overall design must be demonstrated to be compatible with period style." In an attempt as Individually Attested Pattern, this submission documented uncharged tomoe in annulo in groups of three. However, it did not document tomoe in groups of five or charged tomoe. '''Tomoe in groups of three may be registerable with a step from period practice'''. However, pending documentation, the arrangement submitted here is not. On redesign, please advise the submitter to draw the annulet larger so that it is clearly visible.

"Previous precedents have indicated that design elements which are only found in Japanese mon may only be registered if they can be blazoned in European heraldic terms. Previous precedent has also held that '''a Japanese stream cannot be blazoned in European heraldic terms'''. No evidence has been presented which either overturns the philosophical basis of the previous precedents, or which presents an acceptable European blazon for the Japanese stream. Thus, the Japanese stream design element continues to be unregisterable."
