'Bushido' Parchment

This is an interesting design. It's certainly got a lot of Japanese design element into it. I like the fact that the facing sides actually literally "face" each other (in the sense that the Samurai armour's has front and back of the head and the finger guards appear to accommodate a single blade passing through.) I am curious as to what inspired this design. I'm also curious as to why you decide to put the numbers on the "face" side as 1,3,2,4 as counted clockwise from the top right. Is there any significance to that?
