        OFW,

        What a conundrum you present us!! I cannot think of any kanji. My wife thinks it looks like "hou" [gift/present]

        The modern kanji's ancestor is this "seal script" version; which, does bear a semblance to your design:



        I look forward to more informed opinions than mine.
