Description
Everything is Going Well in Japanese is 一路順風 which is read ichiro junpū
一路順風 (ichiro junpū): a fair wind the whole way, the blessing said to someone setting out.
一路順風 is the wish at the gangway, said to the one who is leaving. It fits a graduation, a new post, a voyage begun, or a life about to start somewhere else. May the wind be at your back the whole road. The wish belongs to a departure, to someone setting out on a road.
Its sister 順風満帆, junpū manpan, fair wind and full sail, is the wish for the voyage itself, and is sold here as its own design.
一路順風, a traveler's blessing, is found as early as a thanksgiving a Tang governor wrote in 858; the Ming and Qing novels made it the stock phrase of a good journey, and by the late Qing it was said at partings.
We want you to be as happy with the meaning as you are with Master Takase's art. To learn more, visit Philology of 一路順風.

About Our Scrolls
Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase brushes your scroll by hand when you order it. Each scroll bears her red seal, 英利, and her signature.
The scrolls are 12 1/4" W × 43" H (31 × 109 cm) with real silk borders and Japanese paper that are layered so the scroll hangs straight and will not warp over time. The scrolls themselves are made by Sankō (株式会社三幸) in Gifu prefecture, which has been making high quality scrolls since 1947, and we have worked with Sankō for over two decades.
Eri Takase was born and raised in Osaka, Japan, and holds the rank of Shihan, the highest rank in Japanese calligraphy, from the Bokuteki-kai and the Bunka-shodo. About Master Takase
