Iwate 岩手県
Origin
Based on a publicly solicited design marking the completion of the prefectural office building, the emblem was established by prefectural notice No. 1083 of November 10, 1964. It stylizes the kanji 岩 (iwa, 'rock'), the first character of Iwate, in a vertically symmetric form, expressing a prefecture advancing toward a rich and livable homeland.
