Shimenawa are ropes woven from straw, hung on shrine torii gates to signify the separation between the divine and the human. When hung on doors, at the entrance, or displayed indoors during the New Year, they symbolize warding off evil and inviting good fortune.
They are also used in the vicinity of events like weddings and funerals, or hung in cars, all with the intention of invoking auspiciousness.
- The main flower used is Sola wood flower, complemented by preserved and dried flowers.
- Dimensions: 12cm width, 15cm height.
Please note that due to handmade craftsmanship and the natural variations in flower arrangements, there may be a 5cm margin of error in dimensions.
