This Shimekazari is called “Spiral.”

This Shimekazari features three interlinked rings of straw and three tassel-like ornaments hanging below,
creating a distinctive and graceful design.

The three connected circles are said to represent human connection
—woven together with the wish for good relationships and lasting bonds.

Across Japan, Shimekazari featuring these triple rings can often be seen.
The spiral-like form carries various symbolic meanings:

it may represent a serpent, the messenger of the water deity, and thus a prayer for abundant harvests;
or it may be seen as the sun, honoring the light and vitality of the coming year;
or as the elegantly bending rice stalks, symbolizing prosperity and the blessings of a rich harvest.

Each form reflects a heartfelt wish, passed down through generations.

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.
This Shimekazari has a strong and substantial form, with three thickly layered straw rings firmly twisted together and full, fan-shaped tassels spreading gracefully below. The generous use of straw and its balanced proportions give the piece a striking and dignified presence.
A single length of hand-twisted straw rope forms three interlinked rings in a spiral shape, resembling a gentle whirl. Each ring is tightly and carefully woven, conveying both suppleness and a sense of vitality and inner strength.
In the context of Shimekazari, spiral or swirling forms are often seen as resembling the gentle ripples that spread across the surface of water—symbols of purity, renewal, and the natural flow of life.
The overlapping circular waves that spread outward bring to mind the way human connections expand—two people joining hands, then three, and gradually forming a wider circle of warmth and togetherness.
The base where the straw is gathered is thick and neatly finished, giving an impression of liveliness—almost as if many people were coming together, filled with energy and spirit.
It comes with a hanging cord made of rice straw, carefully attached to ensure balance when displayed.
Three tassels hang from the interlinked rings, mirroring their arrangement in a set of three. While most Shimekazari feature a single-layer tassel base, this piece has a unique two-tiered structure—an original design that adds depth and refinement to its form.
These tassels look almost as if people were standing close together—sharing warmth and companionship. They seem to express the quiet joy of reuniting with someone dear, or the simple happiness of spending a peaceful, pleasant moment side by side.

Display it on either side of your entrance door.
The back of the Shimekazari is flat, allowing it to rest neatly and securely against the wall when hung.

Indoors, it can be displayed in a gathering space such as a living room,
or at the entrance of a café, gallery, workshop, or select shop.

It would also make a meaningful decoration for a meeting room, shared office,
or even a classroom—any place where people come together to connect and create.

Joyful meals and warm gatherings with family and friends.

Lively conversations with customers over shared interests.

Meaningful discussions with trusted colleagues.

The sight of companions encouraging one another as they grow together.

This piece seems to watch over all who gather in such places—quietly, yet always with a gentle presence.

The three tassels spread outward in a fan-like shape, which is considered especially auspicious.
This widening form is said to ward off misfortune and symbolize the unending flow 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.

The deeply layered rings, firmly woven from straw,
seem to hold within them the quiet beauty of meaningful encounters—
moments that happen only once, yet linger warmly in memory.

Some meetings happen only once, yet leave memories that endure.
Others are with those who have shared long stretches of time—family, friends, companions walking the same path.

Moments spent together in the same space, sharing something however small,
become treasures that warm us again and again, enriching the fabric of our lives.

“Spiral” — a reminder that all things come around again.

May the coming year bring many new and meaningful connections.
