Couldn't load pickup availability
Warm texture
Shimenawa(a sacred Shinto rope) decoration made from Japanese paper, washi. 
A small rice cake with an orange leaf on it. The soft texture of Japanese paper creates a warm atmosphere. 
The shimenawa decoration is a landmark when the Toshigami descends and indicates the sanctuary. In addition, a round rice cake means happiness, and stacking two rice cakes means ``combining good fortune'' and ``growing old happily.'' 
The small size makes it perfect for spaces such as back doors and offices. A transparent mounting hook with double-sided tape is also included. It's nice that you can install it as soon as it arrives, and the hook is transparent so it's not noticeable.
