There is a record in 1220 (Gyokuzui (Michiie KUJO's diary)) that thread flower of pine was found on the hiogi of young crown prince, although it was a plain-wood fan instead of cross-grained fan, and nina decoration can be found in the documents in the mid-Kamakura period (Shozoku Shikimokusho).
糸花は、横目扇でなく白地の扇ながら幼い皇太子の檜扇に松の飾りがあるという承久2年（1220年）の記録（玉蘂）があり、鎌倉時代中期頃より文献で蜷飾りが確認できる（装束式目抄）。
