This is a Shimekazari called “Tama”. It is a decoration consisting of a ring that resembles a ball(Tama) and a hanging straw decoration, and is often hung in the entrance hall.
There are five sizes available: XS,S,M,L,XL When purchasing, please check the outside measurements at the top of the page carefully.
Shimekazari are decorations made from rice straw that are displayed inside and outside the house in preparation for welcoming the New Year’s deity, “Toshigami-sama”.
The Shimekazari introduced here is mainly made in Edogawa Ward, Tokyo, and uses rice straw harvested in Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Pref., and the Narita area of Chiba Pref.
Rice straw, also called “green harvest”, harvested before the rice has ripened.
Rice straw harvesting takes place in the peak of the summer heat, around August.
Since it is too hot to work during the day, they start early in the morning while it is still cool, and then dry the harvested rice straw well over time and store it in a cool, dark place.
The harvested rice straw was piled up in a warehouse with air conditioning and was waiting for its turn to be used. Just looking at the material of rice straw, you can feel something like life, strength and momentum.
The one we will introduce here is a powerful and well-made rope Shimekazari.
If you keep it out of the sun, it will stay green like this.It is made by looping a straw rope and inserting the hanging straws between the rope.Strong and magnificent rope. There are two ways of braiding straw rope, ‘right-handed’ and ‘left-handed’, and the rope used in Shinto rituals is generally left-handed. However, even in Shinto rituals, it seems that there are cases where the rope is right-handed, depending on the region or the person making it.When delivered, the straw is bundled in this way to protect the straw on the bottom.After delivery, please untie the straw bundle and display it.There is also a straw rope attached for tying.This set of ornaments also includes a large paper decoration called a gohei. The gohei is sometimes likened to a thunderbolt or an ear of rice.The “Gohei” is made by folding red and white paper together, so you can peel off the red and white and attach only the white, if you prefer.However, because the gohei is made by overlapping two large sheets of paper, it is less likely to become creased when displayed than if it were made from a single sheet, and it has a more elegant appearance.When delivering, please include one of each of the left and right Gohei. Please attach them by stapling or taping the two pieces of paper together and inserting them as shown in the photo.Let’s take a look at each size. This is XS size.It’s a cute size.This is S size.This is M size.This is L size.It is a large, imposing size that covers the face.This is the “XL” size.It’s quite heavy. It’s powerful and a very impressive size.
Please check the video here for how to attach the Gohei.
This is a sturdy, energetic Shimekazari.
In addition to the gohei, they are sometimes decorated with other items such as “Yuzuriha leaves”, “Urajiro leaves”, and “Daidai(bitter orange)”.
*Please note that we do not have the “Yuzuriha leaves”, “Urajiro leaves”, or “Daidai (bitter orange)” ornaments available. In Japan, they are sold at flower shops at the end of the year, so please purchase them there.
In order to keep the Shimekazari in good condition, please do not leave it in the cardboard box after it arrives, but open it and take it out immediately.
If you do not display it immediately after taking it out of the box, please store it in a cool place that is not exposed to direct sunlight.
After use, you can either take it to the shrine’s collection point or dispose of it as burnable waste. If you dispose of it as burnable waste, please make sure to follow the waste classification rules of your local government.
For the large and extra-large versions of this “Tama”, due to their large size, we will charge a shipping fee of 3,600 to 4,000 yen (6,000 yen for Okinawa) including tax, rather than the standard shipping fee, depending on the region. When you place your order, the standard shipping fee will be displayed, but we will recalculate it and contact you later.
