This kozuka is modeled after the old couple (the "jō" and "uba") from the Noh play "Takasago," representing the married love and longevity associated with Takasago Shrine. The male pine (jō) Izanagi and the female pine (uba) Izanami are symbols of marital harmony and longevity. This is a very interesting piece with stylish decoration, modeled after the origin of Takasago. Please take this opportunity to hold it in your hands!
