This Shimekazari is called “Graceful Flight.”
The design resembles a bird spreading its wings and rising gracefully into the sky.
The mizuhiki crane attached to the Shimekazari is a symbol of longevity and peace, and has long been cherished in Japan as a lucky motif for celebratory occasions.
It is a bright and elegant decoration, perfect for welcoming the start of a new year.
A Shimekazari is a traditional New Year’s ornament made of rice straw, displayed indoors or outdoors to welcome the Toshigami deity at the start of the year.
The Shimekazari introduced here is made locally in southern Nagano, using rice straw harvested in the area.
The makers are involved in every step, from cultivating and harvesting the rice straw to crafting each Shimekazari by hand.
The rice straw is harvested early, before the grains ripen, during the hot summer months of July and August.
This Shimekazari is made with the same high-quality rice straw used for constructing sumo wrestling rings. The fresh green straw is carefully twisted and braided by hand.
This video shows the rice straw harvest, which we documented on site. Please take a look.A single length of hand-twisted straw rope is formed into a circular wreath shape. Bundled rice straw is added to it, and the piece is adorned with rice ears and a decorative mizuhiki crane.The ropework is beautifully done. Its pleasant fragrance and the smooth texture of the straw reveal the fine quality of the material itself.The pure white wings of the mizuhiki crane draw the eye. This mizuhiki craft is made in Iida City, Nagano Prefecture, featuring the traditional color palette of red, white, and gold.The base where the straw ends are gathered is neatly trimmed and beautifully finished.The opposite end of the straw forms a graceful fan shape, which, together with the mizuhiki crane, resembles the outstretched wings of a bird in flight.At the center, dried rice ears are arranged—symbolizing wishes for a bountiful harvest and prosperity, as many grains grow from a single seed.The rice straw spreads outward in a radial pattern like sunbeams. With that light at its back, the crane poised for flight takes on a luminous, almost sacred presence.A hemp cord is attached for hanging, making it easy to display—just hook it onto a wall or stand, and it’s ready to enjoy.
Display it at your entrance—either outside or inside.
Though modest in size, the combination of the wreath, rice ears, and mizuhiki crane creates a festive and elegant presence, perfect for the New Year season.
Indoors, you can display it anywhere you like — in the living room, dining area, or bedroom.
The straight, outward-spreading form of the rice straw is also considered auspicious. This fan-like shape is believed to ward off misfortune and symbolize the endless continuation of happiness and prosperity.
It is also lovely to keep on display throughout the year, long after the New Year season has passed.
To keep your Shimekazari in good condition, please open the package promptly upon arrival and do not leave it stored inside the cardboard box.
If you are not going to display it right away, store it indoors in a cool place away from direct sunlight.
After use, it may be taken to a Shinto shrine for disposal, or treated as burnable household waste. If disposing as waste, please be sure to follow your local municipality’s guidelines.
Since ancient times, the crane has been cherished as a sacred bird that brings abundance and good harvests.
The golden rice ears beside it are said to reflect an old tale that rice cultivation began when a crane carried an ear of rice in its beak.
Together, the crane and the rice ears symbolize richness, prosperity, and the blessings of nature.
Like a bird in flight, “Graceful Flight” carries blessings with purity and grace.
Its white wings shimmer in the sunlight as it soars through the sky, radiating light that heralds the beginning of a bright new year.
May the coming year be filled with clarity, abundance, and joy.
