Thank you for viewing. Made with refined hemp from Yashu, Tochigi Prefecture. Originally, the Japanese word "asa" (hemp) refers to this refined hemp or ramie. Hemp twine sold at 100-yen shops and home centers is a different type of hemp, and linen, which is also well-known as hemp, is another type. Currently, it is very difficult to obtain authentic, traditional Japanese hemp. I made this so that you can experience the real thing. Refined hemp has been used since before the myth of the opening of the rock cave, to purify things that cannot be purified by water or salt. It is said to be good for space purification, but please touch it with your hands every day. ・There is only one farmer in the country who grows this golden-colored refined hemp. A comparison photo with general refined hemp is included at the end. (The top photo is golden-colored refined hemp) ・This is a knot that especially celebrates the current season. A paper explaining the meaning of the knot will be enclosed, so I hope you can spend your days in order with its meaning. ・The flower-shaped part is made with the same twisting method used for the shimenawa (sacred rope) used in Shinto rituals, which takes a lot of time and effort. ・To make it easy to hang with an S-hook, I also hand-twisted the hanging string from the same refined hemp. It is all made of genuine, domestically produced refined hemp and its stems. ・This is not meant to be displayed for a year. May it reach those who need it. Thank you.
